Sharpening and Softening a Picture
If you are planning to edit your pictures using image editing software, the
Sharpness feature can make some editing processes easier. By selecting
the Sharp setting, the edges around the picture are enhanced, making it
easier to cut or crop the image. If you want to blend the image into a
background, use the Soft setting to de-emphasize the edges. For everyday
picture-taking, keep the Sharpness feature set to Standard. The Sharp or
Soft settings may increase or decrease the clarity in pictures.
