- You've got a nice good looking image, but you want it to be razor sharp. Using this method, you can get that sharpness you are looking for.
With the power of VIVID light blend mode combined with a blur, we can achieve amazing results.

Impressive ❤
very nice ! Perfect to create action macro from it to use
Glad you like it!
Excellent tutorial. Thank you for the quick explanations for what the blend modes are doing. Even so, I'm going to have to reproduce these examples to better comprehend why the blurring of the Vivid Light layer produces the sharpening effect.
You're very welcome!
The motion blur trick blew my mind. Super technique. Subscribed!⭐️👏👍
Awesome! Thank you!
excellent tutorial sir ❤️👍👍
Many many thanks
Never would have considered motion blur! Will try, thanks
Enjoy!
This is a really wonderful video, and well explained. It's also exactly what an unsharp mask does to sharpen an image (with the exception of the blur type that you use), so maybe a better explanation of how sharpening works than a practical tool for everyday use. Still, very cool!
Thank you!
Your videos are great, albeit sometimes complicated to remember - would you consider making and providing macros when you can, as does Dave from in affinity?
I tried these steps on a photo, and yes, it worked, but how am I going to remember? I will either try to make a template or a macro. I realize you share the theory of operation, but still, they have so many steps to remember :(
Great suggestion!
Incredibly useful. I am going to come back when I have time and Macro the sharpening and voila 3 secs.
Thank you!
Rather than adding a mask to sharpen specific areas I decided to use the blur brush,and it worked !!! Very low opacity and flow to control the effect.
Great suggestion, thank you!
This is crazy! Thanks.
You're welcome! Thanks
you are hands down the best for Affinity tutorials. Really incredible! I respect you a lot sir! Did you have by any chance look into any Color Checkers compatibility with Affinity? To my knowledge neither X-Rite nor SpyderCheckr are yet working with this software and for product photography having realistic colors and therefore a proper ICC per each lightning scenario is quite important. Do not know if there are other ways to go around this problem. Your input would be much appreciated. Cheers!
Thank you very much. I believe the best way is to create icc profiles from the colorchecker software. Maybe this link might help forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/77543-how-to-use-colorchecker-passport-in-affinity-photo/
Thanks for this video! Simply amazing!
Thank you too!
Very interesting sharpening technique!
Thank you! Cheers!
once again, a really excellent tutorial!!! Thank You !!!!!!!!
Thanks again!
Really really excellent tutorial and very much useful. Thank you
You're very welcome!
Really useful! Thanks!
Now, may I suggest you use some pop filter on your mic, or/and use a hp-filter in your sound editing? That would make your videos audiovisual excellent.
Thank you! Great suggestion! (and maybe i also need to get a better headset to listen to myself 🙃 )
Just tested it out, Fantastic! We’ll done sir 😁🤜🤛
One question though… I don’t understand how the black and white adjustment is allowing you to adjust the colours ??
Thank you... it makes the little existing colors from the vivid light blend darker or lighter, which then affects the overlay blend.. (hope it makes sense :))
thank you!
You're welcome!
Very nicely done. But I'll have to watch this video a few more times at a slower speed to really understand what's going on. Thank you.
Thank you for the suggestion!
I will have to watch this a few times. And write down the steps. I can’t remember too many steps
Thanks!!!!
Thank you too!
Very nice. However, how different it from the High Pass sharpening live layer?
Thank you. It looks very similar to High Pass, but i think this gives you more control with the motion blur and also (depending on the photo), it generates sharper results..
Sometimes it works, sometimes - in fact most of the time - the layer icon of the inverted layer becomes gray after changing the blend mode to vivid light and the rest of the procedure does not have the sharpening effect. I read the same comment below, but it's strange that affinity did not correct this bug because we are half a year further now.
what is a clipped child ?
Nice tut & effect, but it doesn't work for me. I'm getting kind of color detected edges, instead of sharpening. What should be changed to use on 16b image?
Interesting... are all the blend modes correctly set?
@@Graphicalfinity Works perfectly if I convert image to 8bit.
Great video, unfortunately I cannot follow on the ipad...somewhere I get lost...😀
Sorry to hear that, i will try to do a quick ipad version
Hello..... what a différence a clipping mask and a Child layer Thanks for yours video very interesting
You’re welcome 😊
This is black magic.
::)
when I add a picture it says pixel layer not image. am I missing a step?
It should not make much difference i guess? If you add an image externally it will an image layer, if you copied and pasted from another selection it can be a pixel layer.
HI, this soft is horrible. Couple of times I have done this procedure with success, now when I swich vivid light all space is absolutely gray with not any detail. No chance to go to next step, but if so - no result appears.
Studio reset - no change.
Sorry to hear that... Did you restart the application? I also sometimes have the idea things are not working correctly, however most of the time it is my own mistake (either forget to set correct blend range, or moved the layer incorrectly, etc), but from time to time, there are indeed strange bugs, it is still quite a young application :)
Ahhhh this only works in 8bit. Spent a good 10 mins wondering why it wouldnt work. thought i was goin crazy for a sec and somehow doing the steps wrong
👍
I am sorry, but it appears to me as a lot of complicate work just to achieve a small result.
No worries, it is just another technique.
@@Graphicalfinity Thanks for your answer, but it is a long tome that I hope to find a simple way to achieve a good sharpness way to be used on the photos.
How stupid! To simply sharpen an image? A slider would have made this much easier!
Thank you for your feedback
