Problems with Reconstruction Filters

Many of the "blocky" artifacts visible in resampled images are not due to classical aliasing, but instead caused by poor reconstruction filters.



Excessive pass-band attenuation results in images that are noticeably blurry.

Excessive high-frequency leakage can lead to ringing or it can accentuate the sampling grid which is sometimes called anisotropy.
