In this short video series I'll be explaining the various ways you can sharpen an image in Photoshop. Those ways include the Unsharp Mask, Smart Sharpen, and High Pass Sharpening. In this video, I explain the Smart Sharpen. I also explain how to use a Smart Object so you can readjust your sharpening. You can find all of the videos in this series here: bit.ly/2tFikqS For more detailed info about how post processing sharpening works, watch my Lightroom video on the subject: ruclips.net/video/mZV38QDo388/видео.html Please follow me on Instagram: instagram.com/anthonymorganti/ Gear and settings used for image in video: Fujifilm X-T3: amzn.to/2YNhYso Fujifilm 100-400mm F4.5-5.6 Lens: amzn.to/31S9z8u Fujifilm 1.4x Teleconverter: amzn.to/2TYaTUP Peak Design Camera Strap: amzn.to/2Sqi4Eg Manual Mode with Auto ISO Auto White Balance Handheld Spot Metering - Metered off of the bird's head Single Point Focus - Focused on the bird's eye 1/1000, F8.0, iso: 400 at 560mm Checkout my Recommended Gear List: www.amazon.com/shop/anthonymorganti I use this software to record my screen: telestream.pxf.io/DMrW2 Unsure of how to price your photography?

Interesting. Question about the instructions at around 2:00: I understand that you can't do any sharpening if you have only an adjustment layer selected. But why not just select the background/pixel later and do sharpening on it (or a copy or smart object version of it)? Why the need to merge all layers or do the stamped layer if all your pixels are on one layer?
Thanks Anthony. It seems like they named this Smart Sharpen because you have to be fairly smart to use it well. Glad you're covering the whole range of options.
Good explanation of a confusing topic. I always enjoy your videos but I do find your computer speed a bit frustrating. A master trainer like yourself shouldn't be waiting for Photoshop. I'd definitely "buy you a coffee" to fund an upgrade.

Thank you as always. Smart sharpen vs High Pass Sharpen, which is better for sharpening wildlife?
Anthony - Great video. Looking forward to the rest of this series.
Well done mr phatagrapha...!
Really very helpful. Thank You
Nice tutorial. Thank you.
I wish you would have been clear in the beginning how to select a portion of the image to sharpen.
how can i take it off? :/
for some reason mine didn't show up where i could take it off with the eye?
