Hi all and a better New Year.

I have some pixel 4a video that was too electronically sharpened in the camera.. Is there a way to reduce sharpness without changing the 4K format. I am only aware of the PD sharpening feature in PD18, I like to increase the high end roll off to reduce overshoot.

Thanks

Again Happy and Healthy New Year

Ideally the video sharpness settings should be set all the way to the left for the highest resolution without any artificial artifact in most cameras. You can try the blur filters to possibly reduce the halos around objects and grains caused by the previous sharpening.

Possibly another contributor may know a different way to fix it.

Some cameras like the Sony AX100 and Pixel 4a have fixed settings. I want to reduce the fixed sharpening

Thanks for the reply.
