[QUOTE="sokolich, post: 749536, member: 34219"] Hi All! I was wondering if the veterans here could look at my photo and let me know if you think the focus is not sharp. The reason I ask is that I have been shooting pictures for quite a while since my first film camera (Canon AE-1). I have gone from a D40 to D200 and now using a D300. I just don't think the photos on my D300 are as sharp as they should be. I thought that my D200 took better pictures. With that said, I have gone through all of my AF settings, done test shots under A priority, S priority, manual and program. I have cleaned the lens contacts on the camera and checked all other settings that I can think of mainly the release focus setting. Here is the EXIF data on the uploaded shot: Nikon D300 (about 15k shutter actuations) Nikon 50 mm F1.8 lens (almost brand new) Shot at ISO 200, 1/125, f/3.5 with 0.00 EV on shutter priority, white balance Auto.
