In fact, unless you get commissions, you shouldn’t be holding a camera.

Yes the results might suck a little, but its the first step of many as software and algorithms improve with time.

Hopefully nobody would rely on this software for normal day to day work, however some of the other examples show recovery of text from documents or signs – Imagine the usage from a legal point of view, or trying to find out exactly a photos location by a sign in the background.

The examples show a an extreme example of “deblurring” too… So the results will look a little crappy – However, from a professional point of view, what if you have a photo from a wedding, or event that is absolutely perfect except that its marginally out of focus! The software itself maybe able to recover it to a point that a client would be happy with!

The simplest solution is to check the photo, see if you got it focus and if not, shoot it again! If you can’t, then just let it go! Let it gooooooo… let it gooooooooooooooooooooo…
