Car: Toyota Yaris TS Rep Power: 0 ![]() | with regular software like photoshop you can only zoom in so much and then you get huge pixels and you cant see a thing. I have seen on a few movies software that cleans up the image once you have zoomed in to much and you can clearly see everything. where can i download such a software? thanks. |

| To be honest, i'd be surprised if such software exists. I can that there is something available that does a rough enhancement, but not to the extent that they do it in hollywood. Don't believe everything you see in movies! ![]() | |

| old porsches do run! | Obviously you can't get any more detail out of the image, but you can try to "fake" it and make it look less noisy and pixelated. For example BlowUp plugin for photoshop: http://www.alienskin.com/blowup/blowup_examples.html Look at examples to see what I mean. It smoothes the image and keeps the edges without bluring everything. |

Car: Toyota Yaris TS Rep Power: 0 ![]() | i am not looking for that. what i mean is say i take a picture of a street from the 10th floor of a building is there a software that lets me zoom into a car number plate? i dont want quality just enough to make stuff out. I saw it in the tv show '24' at ctu and its really cool. |

| Like I said before: hollywood = bullshit If you want to pick out details, then it depends on the maximum resolution of the camera. If the object is too far away for the camera to distinguish details, then you cant just make them appear. | |

Car: 2006 MY07 Astra SRi Turbo Rep Power: 82 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ^ The site was most likely using an image made up of many, many other, smaller images. So it's not a massive zoom function, just simply a collage of images that you can zoom in on. The level of zoom is determined by the resolution of the images used in the collage.

It's not possible - the information just isn't there in the image. Educated guesses are possible, but only to a certain, quite limited extent.

| old porsches do run! | I'm sorry, but how stupid can you be to believe in that shit? You can't get stuff that isn't there! Do you understand what is bitmap? There's ONLY RGB information about every single pixel, and nothing more. You zoom -> you get big pixels. You can smooth them, blure them, remove noise, or do some advanced stuff like in my link above, but you can't get numbers from numberplate that is presented with 2 pixels in original image. You'll just get 2 huge pixels. |
