Fixing blurry pictures??

14 years ago

Sometimes when I take a digital picture, it comes out blurred like this photo. I save all of my pics in My Pictures, and it does have an editing program, but nothing for blurred pictures. Is there a way to correct them or should I just delete them? Thank you.

I'm afraid nothing can be done, every little pixel is like this, I would delete it.
Make sure you zoom in on the subject, focus, then you can zoom out while still holding the shutter button half way down, ...then snap, not sure if your camera will do that but most have this future.

A little less blurry, but you will never get it completely into focus. I also noticed that everything in the picture is blurred...close and far objects. Maybe movement of the camera caused the blur?

Thanks, Lesley! Candy Land is my new climber. It bloomed great but it hasn't started to climb yet. May get some growth this year but don't expect to see it really get tall until next year. Cherish is an old one. I still have Love and I had Honor at one time. They were the other two parts to the collection. None of them are strong growers.

Picture is bright and blurry? Sounds to me like the focus block is bad. Before you try replacing it, see if there are manual adjustments on the focus block or the flyback transformer itself. If there are, you may be able to do some adjustments that way to get a little more life out of it. But your thirteen year old tv will soon be ready to retire.

Not DIY. Supposed to be one of the best fabricators per a few references. But the slabs where different thickness as you can see by the picture. he said he can fix it during install with shim's, variance, etc.. he said very normal with countertops.

You have areas of wear-through. The stain is UNDERNEATH the finish. If the STAIN has been worn away then the FINISH has been worn away as well. That is a big concern. The finish is what protects the wood. Without protection, the wood will become damaged beyond repair. And that means your "gold mine" will be robbed of its value. It is *possible (I doubt it...just by the look of the wear) that you could get a buff and coat done to give you another 5-7 years of 'life' for the FINISH...but the buff and coat will NOT fix the stain. A buff and coat ONLY works if the finish is INTACT. If it has worn down to raw wood, there is no 'fix' other than a full sand and refinish. A buff and coat = $3/sf. The average sand/refinish (the full meal deal) = $5/sf. If you want the stain fixed, then you would be throwing away $3/sf when in fact you want to fix the colour which would cost another $2/sf. You will want to bring in an NWFA Certified Sanding/Refinishing professional (www.nwfa.org) to help assess what can be done and for how much.

If they are photos that are important to you, you may want to keep them..

The just patented a software program that can fix focus and blur problems such as yours, but it won't be on the market for at least a year.

Your picture seems out of focus. Some auto-focus systems take longer to focus in low light and some do not work at all. In those cases, you may have to revert to the manual focus mode.

However, I suspect that you pushed the shutter button too fast and did not allow enough time for the auto-focus to do its job. Most digital auto-focus cameras have a two step shutter button; the first step activates the focus system. Pushing the button to the second step takes the picture.

I do not know of any software that can fix a pic this badly focused. Some photo editors do have a 'sharpen' function, but this works mostly to adjust contrast of the pixels to better define edges. Overall blur is a missed shot.

How does this look? Better except for glare on one man's glasses...this can be done with free photoscape, with the sharpen feature.
