[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 142690, member: 6277"] Try to keep images under 1mb. I generally reduce the size to 1000px on the long size and that generally works while keeping the quality pretty good. If you are manually focusing there should be no difference in focus from dark to light subjects. There is a small adjusting knob on the side of the eye piece that adjusts the focus of the viewfinder that helps to be sharp but makes not difference in the shot though. Just the view. If this is manual focus then I would say that you did not focus it correctly. Have you tried live view? Also what size are you shooting? You should be shooting JPEG Fine and Large. This will give you the best shot out of the camera. I don't think you are ready for RAW yet. It takes a lot of Post Processing to get that correct. There are also some sharpening settings in the camera that we can go over later. What aperture and shutter speed were these shot at? You may be trying these shots in to low of light. [/QUOTE]
