Usually when I do that, any USM like algo looks terribly bloated/artificial, while algos like FineSharp look much more natural.
I understand I could easily do this comparison myself, but I'm always having a hard time getting AviSynth/VapourSynth scripts with lots of dependencies to work... 
Maybe you could just sharpen my preferred 1080p image with all dials turned up to "overload" with Plum, then I can compare your final result with the best I can achieve with my own preferred algos? That would be awesome! |
Plum shares the exact same non-linear amplifying expression with finesharp... so same number gives the mathematically same amount of sharpening, anyways, I reduced the strength to 0.86 for finesharp to show the difference
Plum
Code:
clp = finesharp.sharpen(clp,sstr=0.86)
