Hi gang,
I'm curious as to what settings you guys/gals set your cameras to. In the photo shooting menu, under "Set picture control", where do you have the "Sharpening" set to? I mostly use the "standard" catagory. Thanks, Dave

I set the Sharpness setting to +7 and bump the Saturation to +1.

It would be a good choice to complete your holy trinity of Tamron lenses. Then you could add the Tamron SP 150-600mm G2 (Generation 2) and have the Tamron Grand Slam

sorry, but since i'm also a dog trainer, i'll use the same analogy when someone asks what brand of dog food i feed my dog :)

some dogs can thrive on pizza and table scraps, and some get skin rashes and puke up the premium brands. rather than answer their question i always recommend they learn more about basic canine nutrition.

when you start changing the sharpening on your shots and look at the differences you will begin to see what YOU like for the type of image YOU are trying to create at that moment in time. and never forget that everyone who looks at your shots will always see them in their own subjective way. whether they happen to be a photographer or not :)

if you often find yourself asking "what settings did you use ?" it might be a red flag you are trying to duplicate what someone else did rather than create your own images.

start simple, change ONE thing at a time and see what effect it has on your shot. shoot one shot many ways rather than shoot many shots one way and you might make faster progress.
- it worked for me :)
 
Are you shooting JPEG or RAW. Those setting are only good for JPEG

If you are shooting JPG I would suggest that you use the Fine>>Large setting and also set your camera for better sharpness.



Go into your Menus and highlight the "Shooting" menu (the camera icon)

Drop down to "Picture Controls" and click right one time.

From here, highlight "Standard" and then click right one time.

From this settings menu, increase the "Sharpness" setting to "7".

Drop down and increase the "Saturation" setting +1 notch on the slider.

Press "OK" to exit the menus and you're done.
