Sharpening an image is easy but sharpening an image while keeping the loss of quality to a minimum is quite hard. Among the many things that Photoshop can do, sharpening is one of the areas that is often misunderstood. Most digital photographers and image editors have learned to sharpen their images by fixed rules where they specify certain numeric values to use in Photoshop filters without really understanding why they use the tools they do, or how they might be using them rightly or wrongly.
This roundup of Photoshop tutorials will show you the many options that you have so you will be able to point out how to apply the correct amount and type of sharpening in Photoshop to fix your images. In Photoshop, there are four major ways to sharpen an image, namely, Sharpen filter (in Photoshop: Filter->Sharpen->Sharpen), the Unsharp Mask, High Pass Filter and the LAB Color Sharpening or the use of luminosity data of an image. All these are covered in the tutorials for sharpening in Photoshop listed below:
