The edge sharpness is preserved at the larger size, as we would expect, but the added textural detail is quite amazing – and realistic.

The results can be quite spectacular, even hard to believe.We were sent an early access release to try out, and here’s a quick run-down of what we found: (Image credit: Rod Lawton) (opens in new tab) ON1 Resize AI 2022 first impressions

The increased sharpness and detail in the ON1 enlargement (right) compared to the magnified original (left) is remarkable. Here's a 2x enlargement (2x on both sides, so 4x overall) of a 4.6-megapixel JPEG from a Sigma DP1. Unlike Adobe's Super Resolution tool, ON1 Resize AI can work on JPEGs and TIFFs, and it offers a range of magnifications, not just Adobe's 2x 'take it or leave it' approach (and huge DNG output files). It also has special printing features, such as Tiling for large-scale prints or murals, ‘Gallery Wraps’ for adding reflected or stretched ‘wings to the edges of a photo without losing any image area, the ability to ‘fill’ different print sizes and even ‘soft-proofing’ with different printer presets to judge the amount of sharpening to apply (another feature in the software). You can use it to resize individual images or batch processing a whole series. ON1 Resize AI 2022 can be used as a standalone tool, or as a plugin or external editor for your regular software. ON1 is also suggesting Resize AI 2022 could be used to make high quality still images or prints from video frame captures. We’ve got lots of photos shot on 6MP Nikon D50s or 8MP Canon DSLRs from years back, and we’re sure lots of other photographers have too. It’s also designed to breath new life back into photos taken on older, lower resolution cameras.
