Adobe has been working on a new photography tool for its upcoming version of Photoshop. It's called "Camera Shake Reduction".
The feature can take a photo that’s blurry due to camera shake caused by low light or slow shutter speeds, calculate the shake amount and "deblur" it.
Check out the sneak peek video demonstrating this new tool in action...

You have to consider the effect on DR, gradations, noise and other artifacts that will result from the image processing. Similar image processing has been around for at least a decade, though not so consumer friendly. It will work best with images are only a bit shaky, so don't turn off the VR just yet.

You can't put back detail that was never there. Your image may look better, but it's not going to look as good as an image that never had any shake to begin with.

I actually don't think it will affect VR lenses, on the opposite, I think it works hand in hand with it. Now you can use even lower handheld shutter speeds with VR than before...
That of course if it works as advertised and if produces professional results.

yeah they've been demonstrating versions of that for a while now, looks like they are close to refining it
it still will not be magic and is never as good as the image taken with no shake at all and IS will still be better, but it should be wonderful all the same and help to rescue up some shots that didn't used to be able to quite cut it (also even with IS you sometimes get shake so it would simply help the shots where even with IS they still didn't cut it)

some of the detail actually is still there, just in blurred form, it can take some of that information and put some of it back in line, that said, yeah, it can't do that perfectly and it's definitely not as good as taking without shake to begin with and images are only stored with so many bits and now you have various bits overlayed with no extra precision and so on don't forget

Adobe have already showed this one time Before. I can't remember if it was last year or when they introduced the latest PS. And it didn't work good at all then. They even did some cheating to make it look better when they showed it. Adobe admitted that later. Hope it's working better this time

Adobe demoed not an anti-shake filter but a filter that would miraculously sharpen out of focus images - and it worked too - as long as, like Adobe, you knew EXACTLY how those images were blurred in the first place and could generate a precise reversing of that math. On real world images, it didn't work so well at all, which is probably why you never saw it in any final version of Ps. I would not hold your breath for any of these magical cures sales pitches.
