This will be available as an update in adobe lightroom soon, So if you are a lightroom user, right-click on your photo and select enhance details and see if it's available... 👍👍👍

[@davidajohn]

Hi Ian - as you mentioned, it's not available in Lightroom yet, but I've noticed that if I edit an image in Lightroom and then subsequently open the original RAW file in Photoshop, the file opens in Camera Raw with all of my edits (including cropping, and even the Fuji camera profile). Of course, I can then use Super Resolution! I think this is because I've got Lightroom set up to save XMP sidecar files, which I don't think is the default. It seems to work with the Fuji and Nikon Raw files I've tried so far anyway.

[@opotopo1]

What a fantastic tip. Many thanks Ian for sharing. Brilliant.

[@ian_worth]

No worries 👍👍

[@gazdyer2732]

Excellent Ian , i have tried this my self and it is truly amazing on properly focused Raw files , keep up the great work 👍

[@ian_worth]

Great to hear! 👍👍🙏

[@redrazor9996]

Brilliant and thank you Ian for your insight into this feature. How cool is that?! Keep up the great work sir.

[@ian_worth]

Glad you liked it! 👍👍

[@paulthomas8986]

The amount of detail on the fern was insane when you compared them side by side. I am very excited to try this on some of my old landscape photos. Thanks for sharing your results. Really make the fuji apsc punch above its weight. Looking forward to seeing a comparison with the medium format beast.

[@ian_worth]

Thanks Paul 👍👍

[@rodgerholden3855]

I have tried this Ian a few weeks ago. It’s very good so thanks for the video.

[@ian_worth]

Great to hear! 👍👍👍

[@andrewlunn]

Wow - compelling differences there Ian. Thanks for sharing

[@ian_worth]

No problem 👍

[@michaelt7320]

Really interesting! I assume that this an update to the original Enhanced Details which used to work for me in PS2020 and then caused crashes every time I used it in PS2021. (I'm a Fuji user). An hour and a half with Adobe's technical support didn't resolve it. They did offer another round of support but, by then, I had started to open Raw files in Lightroom, use the Enhance Details there and then send the file to PS 2021. Just tried this new feature in PS2021 and, thankfully, it works. Looks like I'll be changing my work flow again. Thanks very much, Ian! A problem solved! 👍

[@ian_worth]

Cheers buddy 👍👍

[@diogoferreira9039]

Thank you!

[@AndyCuthbert]

Great stuff, Ian. Very interesting. I have not had the opportunity to check out the latest update. Would be great to use with my Nikon APS-C in that I love the weight for hiking. Although I wouldn’t mind getting a Z6 or Z7. 😅 Again great stuff. Keep’em coming. 👏🏻👏🏻

[@ian_worth]

Cool, thanks 👍👍🙏🏻

[@jimmyv8307]

Great video ! Thanks

[@ian_worth]

Glad you liked it! 😊😊👍

[@antonoat]

Very interesting Ian, I've been messing around with this since Adobe released this update. I think it works well providing the donor image is top quality, if your image is noisy that can also become enlarged! Can't wait until you do some videos/ photos using the Fuji GFX.

[@ian_worth]

Cheers buddy, yeah totally agree, it needs to be decent to start with 👍👍

[@emulatorretro]

Yeah, OnOne Re Size has had fractal resizing for a while now, plus multi photo stitching.

[@alexven92]

3:12 My jaw literally DROPPED. How in the hell is that even possible?

[@philipculbertson55]

I'm anxious to see further work on this. In my opinion, Adobe Camera Raw's upsizer is a step in the right direction and easy to use but there are free enlargers on-line that often perform better. AI Enlarger is one example. I want to do further comparisons using a few of these. I'm sure it varies from camera brand to brand as well so what works best for one may not work for another. I have to say I was quite disappointed that Adobe didn't include this in LR on the recent release. ACR and LR have historically been very comparable in features and seem to use the same engine so I'm not sure why they deviated this time.

[@ian_worth]

I'm told its coming to LR soon 😊👍👍

[@Snickers_GLNY]

Great video.

[@ian_worth]

Glad you enjoyed it 👍👍

[@max-olson]

This is wild, can't wait to try it out. For me, this could this be the missing link with the Fuji system: being able to resolve some extra detail and sharpness basically writes off the idea of switching to full frame.

[@ian_worth]

Cheers Max, its a game changer 👍

[@max-olson]

​@Steven Jancsik What I wrote was this process will resolving SOME extra detail and sharpness: which it clearly does, the proof is in the pudding if you watch the video. I never said it would magically conjure up details (like an insect in water). I don't know what you're arguing with.

[@trevhillphotography7852]

Can’t wait to see comparison, surely this is some voodoo magic.

[@ian_worth]

I reckon it is 👍👍

[@trevhillphotography7852]

@@ian_worth make sure you run the x100f files through the machine as well. But considering DOF of APSC vs MF this could be such a breakthrough for sharpness throughout image...not to mention size and cost savings.

X100s

[@stephenschmid492]

Excellent, Ian, thanks for this one. I wonder how well this works for parts of an image, say a background, that are out of focus?

[@ian_worth]

I think the overall quality looks better and it certainly controls the wormy artefacts you can sometimes get 👍👍

[@johnharris2400]

Hello Ian. Thank you for that video. I have seen other reviews on super rez however none have looked at the print aspect. If you do happen to loan/borrow a GFX medium format I would love to see say a 100MP GFX image printed compared to a super rez x series sensor in the same way you enlarged the prints for purposes of this video. Once again thanks, very useful video indeed and all the better that I'm in the market for a printer 👍

[@ian_worth]

Thanks John, really looking forward to trying the gfx100s just waiting for the lockdown to end 👍👍

[@herbmailey2779]

Brilliant, this together with my D850 & Nikon Glass is awesome. Who needs to take a mortgage out for Digital MF when this available

[@ian_worth]

very true, that's my thoughts as well 👍👍

[@ivandimarco2004]

I think it could be a game changer for film photography as well. Will try to enhance small scans from the lab. If it works we could save a massive amount of money!

[@ian_worth]

Yes I was thinking the same, Ivan 👍👍👍🙏🏻

[@TheGazmondo]

Very interesting! I’m now wondering if this will demolish some of the nonsense talked, when discussing M 4/3s, just how big do people really need prints ? Nicely done by the way !

[@ian_worth]

Cheers Gary 👍👍🙏🏻

[@RFranks]

Interesting results, I remember how people used to joke about "zoom and enhance" in some TV crime series and now we have it! You might want to try Gigapixel too, I've heard that may give even better results.

[@ian_worth]

Thanks buddy 👍👍

[@markhoffman9655]

Gigapixel was very good when I i used it on old 3MP files through to 20MP - enlarging up 4x was impressive. Recommend downloading the trial version and use on some of your own files.

[@Streuth22]

Interesting, thanks Ian! I use a Lumix S5 which has a high resolution mode at 96mp. Presumably good for landscapes but haven't used it yet. Technology sure continues to advance exponentially.

[@ian_worth]

Thanks for sharing, it sure does 👍👍

[@diogoferreira9039]

Use the high resolution, or hdr, or any bracketing mode to eliminate noise and increase dynamic range, then use this tool, you will be blown away!!!

[@RobertFalconer1967]

One more vote for Topaz Gigapixel AI. Same sort of idea but works a bit better than Adobe's offering. I think it's important to add that while all this post-processing trickery is amazing and definitely works in many situations, an APS-C sensor will not have the same tonal registration as something like a GFX medium format body. It's the bit depth and tonal reproduction where the larger sensor wins. Certainly not critical in many many situations, but resolution alone isn't the only benefit.

[@coosvermeer]

Thanks for the tip, it works great. It even takes care of the Worm Artefacts issue. The only downside is the enormous size of the file. From 56MB to a whopping 425MB. I was doing a pano to print on a little over 1 meter wide with 7 images but that was to much for my iMac.....it was 600mpix! Looked awesome once it loaded but I was unable to print so kept it at the original files for now.

[@ian_worth]

Yes the file sizes are big, so does bog down the edit a little 👍👍

[@dalkapur]

Very, very interesting! To be fair, this is more about getting a high resolution shot than Medium Format results. There is that 'medium format look', which I think can only be reasonably replicated using the Brenizer method.

[@ian_worth]

Indeed, that why I said "results" instead of "look" in the title... pretty cool though, to get that kind of detail from a 24 megapixel image 😂👍👍

[@dalkapur]

@@ian_worth Hi. I have tried it with files from my GFX 50S and it crashes, even when I crop down to smaller file sizes :-(. Unless it is just my system, seems like there are a few bugs to sort out. That being said, looking at your enhanced file, while I see no reduction in detail at twice the resolution, and indeed some sharpening, the quality of the GFX files still looks miles better to my eye. At first look, this is not quite a game changer, but certainly useful if forced to do a big crop for example.

[@mistermadsen]

@@dalkapur I use it with my 50s, no problems here, and the 205 megapixel looks great

[@jimrookphotos]

Pretty amazing. Have to wonder where all this AI by software is going to end.

[@ian_worth]

Yeah i agree, this particular method can really help when printing big so it a massive bonus to have this in ACR 👍👍

[@timothylabrecque8589]

Do you think this would be a good technique to add to a regular(not printing huge) print workflow?

[@ian_worth]

I think it would 👍👍

[@margrab9139]

I was hopping you mention that. What can software twick do. They delayed it for years to sell more pixeles. Great channel

[@ian_worth]

Cheers buddy 👍

[@matssandquist9258]

Are you running on Big Sur OS? I have not upgraded from Catalina yet and I have an error message when clicking on "Enchance" about not suporting Metal which I have and Adobe says I have to upgrade my GPU drivers.

[@ian_worth]

Not sure buddy 👍

[@furbs9999]

So do you enhance before normal editing? Or after? Just trying to understand where this would fit into my workflow.

[@ian_worth]

I enhance before the edit 👍👍

[@robbquinnimaging4321]

Just curious Ian, how long does it take to enhance the file to super res? My computer, albeit older, took over 5 minutes to process a 26mp Fuji image.

[@ian_worth]

Mine takes about 10 seconds, but i do have an editing pc 👍👍

[@AhmetElhann]

It looks almost same on my cellphone 😀

[@ian_worth]

Ha Ha, it probably would 👍👍😂

[@matpez65]

For fuji Is it best to do this in camera raw then process the dng file in capture one

[@ian_worth]

You could, Lightroom will have this feature soon and then that will be my workflow 👍

[@stephenschmid492]

Ian, I don't see the new editing workflow video you mentioned. Is that still coming?

[@ian_worth]

Apologies buddy, its still in the pipeline, i just got a little side-tracked 👍👍

[@lcr697]

It is a good way to improve the resolution of low pixel sensor raw file, especially for smart phone sensor with 12 million pixels.

[@ian_worth]

indeed 🙏🏻🙏🏻👍

If the detail wasn't there in the RAW file it can't be introduced in post, what WAS there can be 'enhanced' but that can be done manually by anyone with good editing skills.

Give it a try, you might be surprised 👍

[@aparajito1]

Did you try Topaz Gigapixel Ai ? they do this process since few years already . You should compare the results

It's hard to see a difference on KZbin I'll have to try it in Camera Raw. Up to 13x19" or even 16x20" this step shouldn't be necessary. Certainly not on the little print your using as a sample.

[@graham_T]

Thank you but suggest you download a fully functioning 30 day free trial of Topaz Gigapixel Ai . I’ve been using it for about 3 years . Way beyond capabilities of the ACR new function and very very easy to use . Yep not free and yep it needs a beefy computer

[@ian_worth]

Thanks buddy, i might try that 👍👍🙏🏻

[@alanmcdade2459]

No it can’t compete because you can do the same with a medium format image. A super res 100MP would just be even more stunning. The other thing about medium format is that it gives a different field of view at a given focal length ie a “medium format look” which you cannot achieve with photoshop editing, just like full frame and APSC are just different.

[@ian_worth]

Indeed, its pretty cool though. I also think it would be fairly taxing for a pc to convert a 100 mp file to a super res file. it would make the rest of the edit very slow for most people 👍

[@acmdv]

Err I think you'll find that as Camera RAW is part of Lightroom the high resolution option is therefore also available as part of Lightroom.

[@ian_worth]

Err, no its not available yet. I'm told that it will be coming to Lightroom soon though 👍

[@acmdv]

@@ian_worth err it's in the latest update, I know because I've tried it out already this week.

[@ian_worth]

Updated mine this week and its not available yet. I think some areas of the world receive updates earlier than others..

[@acmdv]

@@ian_worth Err it is available as I have already said before I have tried it out. You need to be in the library part of Lightroom Classic, right click your RAW file and bingo it's there to use or you can select it from the Photo tab under "Enhance Details".

[@ian_worth]

Yes enhance details is available in both LRC and ACR but according to Adobe only super res in camera raw. "This is copied from adobes website - Currently, the updated Enhance feature is only available in Camera Raw, but it’s anticipated this will be added to the next new feature release of Lightroom" . Looks like you were one of the lucky ones to receive the update before anyone else. 👍

[@howies.chanel13]

MISLEADING I did it and all it does is change change the size of the resolution so if u take the original image look at the size of pixels and size of the image it just doubles it but when u resize the to same dimensions as the unaltered one the pixel size is still the same so if u make the image with both files and print at say 20 inches 300dpi the pixel amount is exactly the same....??? therefore in PS u can always change the resolution size of your images but the image dimension change with it therefore its misleading it does NOT give u double the pixel size in the same image size. u CAN NOT CHANGE THE PIXEL AMOUNT IN YOUR ORIGINAL IIMAGE FILE SIZE ALL U CAN DO IS CHANGE THE RESOLUTION WHICH MAKES THE DIMENSIOIN OF FILE SIZE BIGGER.. ITS A USELESS FUNCTION

[@josecolon8143]

What about super res on a medium format 🤪😜that’s whacked 😂🤣😂🤣😂

[@mikeharman2046]

To be fair you will need also to compare 100S file using the sane technique and then see the difference

[@sundarAKintelart]

Nice. "....medium format result...." an inadvertent misnomer??

[@ian_worth]

Not at all, a medium format camera such as the fuji gfx outputs between 50 and 100 megapixels this super res technique outputs a 96-megapixel image in my test, resulting in a comparable megapixel count, which is why I titled the video "medium format results". Thanks for watching 😊👍👍
