Colour me unimpressed. If you used the Photoshop Median filter on the Bicubic Resize shots you’d end up with something pretty similar – it just smooths out the jaggies and flattens the noise.

@Mike Stratil – I stated in the intro that I don’t do a lot of large prints, so it’s new to me. I’ve never used Genuine Fractals before so I can’t comment on whether it does a great job or not; however, if I have the opportunity to use it in the future, I’ll compare the results to Blow Up 2.

You present this product as providing something new. Genuine Fractals has long done this kind of resolution enhancement. Thus, it would be very appropriate to compare Blowup with GF. That would be interesting. You should also mention that GF does a great job and competes with Blowup.
