This report addresses the problem of software correction of spatially variant blur in digital images. The problem arises when the camera optics contains flaws, when the scene contains multiple moving objects with different relative motion or the camera itself is i.e. rotated. Compensation through deconvolving is impossible due to the shift-variance in the PSF hence alternative methods are required. There are a number of suggested methods published. This report evaluates two methods
