Re: Nik Sharpening

2013-09-07 by Richard Eskin

If you are shooting RAW or open in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR), its default is to provide sharpening at 25, so be aware of that, otherwise you may over-sharpen if you then also pre-sharpen in NIK. If you are shooting jpeg and don't go through ACR, then pre-sharpening in NIK may be appropriate. You can of course modify the ACR preset to 0 and only use NIK, or just "touch up" in NIK as long as you are aware that ACR does pre-sharpen.
