this topic comes up once a week :)
thats why i can feel smart in copying someone else's answer
USM = Unsharpen Mask
also canon wanted to make things difficult for us and put usm on some of thier lens's
Canon's Usm = Ultra sonique Motor but thats not the question... :)
I have had great results using USM in Photoshop CS2 it makes my photos about 50/60 percent sharper with my really nasty 18-55 mm kit lens
oh and about that kit lens people complaining about the soft focus...
manual focus.. all the difference in the world

Pffft! It stands for Ultra-Sonic Meditation: You stare at the photo you're editing and everything becomes so much clearer...everyone knows that! =) |
