[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 298472, member: 13090"] Are you shooting in JPG or RAW? If you shoot JPG, the first thing you need to do is go into your menus and adjust the "Sharpening" setting. Press the "Menu", go into your Shooting Menu and highlight "Set Picture Control". Click-right using the four-way selector switch and highlight whatever setting you use here. Click-right again, using the four-way selector switch and highlight "Sharpening". Adjust this setting to +6 or +7 and press "OK". I don't know why on earth the default sharpness setting is set so low at the factory, but it is. Another thing I've noticed is when looking at photos on my monitor, they're reduced to a tiny fraction of their total size for easy viewing on the screen. Seeing them at, say, 15% really does not accurately reflect how sharp the shot really is; I think it's reflecting how well the photo-viewing software can render my images at significantly reduced size. Try zooming in on the shot a little and see how sharp the shot looks at, say, 75% or so. [COLOR=#ffffff]...[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
