Great Photoshop action for the 10D, 300D and more

Tokina AF 28-70mm f/2.8 ATX Pro-SV for Canon EOS

Whilst browsing the forums on dpreview, I came upon a thread from a disappointed user of the 300D. He had just jumped from point&shoot digicam and wasnÂ´t used to DOF, post processing etc.

Anyway, one of the advice linked to a terrific photoshop action which works wonders in sharpening and saturating the picture.

HereÂ´s the link, the difference in the before and after pictures is astounding!

I have tried it myself both on jpg and raw pictures and it works great!

HereÂ´s da link!

ECHO.... Echo.......... echo.................

Looking at it right now, as it's not difficult at work (though it probably should be), and hoping it also applies to my G5. Thanks for the link Ivar.

Thanks for the link - this may "save" a couple of photos that I wasn't that happy with!

This should work on everything, just try it out.....

You just open the pic and run the action.

Is there a way to use this action with Photoshop Elements, or do I need to have PE's big brother?

I donÂ´t know. The action is simply a script which uses a couple of functions in PS such as; Layers, USM, Find edges, desature, levels, feather and a couple more...

It doesnÂ´t hurt to try it in Elements... I just donÂ´t know if it will work there..

I have elements and ps 6 but I couldn't figure out how to get
actions to run in elements! It's a breeze in ps6.

I have to say that I have been please with the results of
this action so far!

how do you "install" it? Also, how do you get it to run?

03/17/2004 12:43:55 PM · #16

anyone?

You have to copy the file into the following folder (the path may vary with different photoshop versions..)
C:\Program Files\Adobe\PhotoshopXX\Presets\Photoshop Actions\

Edit: To run the action you have to have the Actions window open (Window - Action). There you can see the 10DFinishers.atn, you click on the |> next to it then select the 10D 'Finisher' and press the play button.
