    Help with fixing a blurry photo

    I am trying to read the serial number in the attached photo. It is located in the lower left hand corner of the photo. Any tips or help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    At this resolution that is impossible.
    Can you crop to the area you mean, so as to have a better chance at it.

          What I meant was, we need a higher resolution crop of the area, not just a crop of the posted picture.
          If you could go back to the original picture and crop that, it may help.
          I am assuming that you had to reze the original at first to be able to post here of course, if that is the full size, I wouldn't think you will get anywhere with it.

            yea that is the full size. Is there anything that I can do to enhance it?

            Thanks

                  DRB1, the image resolution is too low to get anything off of that tag.
                  Too much noise once you start to fiddle with it.

                  And Ant, this 'isn't CSI', but at least Peter S and I tried to help instead of just being snarky.

                          DRB, welcome to RP!
                          There is definitely a 6 just right of center and a 5 at the far right. However as the others have pointed there are not enough pixels there to get proper definition. You image resolution is 72 DPI. Your Sony Cybershot was set on the very lowest possible quality image - it is only 640 x 480 pixels for the entire image which means there are very few pixels that make up the whole label. I do not think you can get much more out of this one.
                          Regards, MM

                            mistermonday - thanks that is some great work. I have attached a clearer photo of the serial # tag that I think matches the blurred version.

                            Thanks again
