I was fairly impressed with the ability of Topaz Sharpen AI to reduce small focus errors.

Unfortunately, Photo AI seems to lack the focus deblur controls of Sharpen. And Sharpen AI is no longer supported.

I didn't know that. I have Sharpen AI and access to Photo AI v1. Since Adobe Denoise AI came out I stopped using Photo AI and kept Sharpen AI around. Last time it was updated was in 2022 and not is it supported any longer, you can't purchase it either. It is a mature product so it works well.

This is what Photo AI v1 did when it was just released in 2022. I realize it has changed a lot since then which includes v2. I'm surprised there would be less control.

Photo AI has four sharpening choices, Lens blur, motion blur, standard and strong. In addition, there are 2 sliders that allow adjustments for each one individually. All in all, there a lot more controls than there were when you bought v1 in 2022.

Photo AI seems to lack an explicit choice of focus blur models, unlike Sharpen.

Not true. It offers several choices.

I'm not the first to whine about the loss of some adjustability that was present in the old Sharpen, Denoise, and Gigapixel trinity.

That's not true. It offers everything that old individual programs did and then some. They are there but you have to choose the function to reveal the choices.

Sorry for the late reply. I have not problem believing that. I have never needed Gigapixel and now I don’t need DeNoise AI so to pay for the whole PAI package just not make sense to me. When I do need it Sharpen AI is adequate.
