[QUOTE="J-see, post: 400897, member: 31330"] I don't know what focal length you were shooting but f/27 or higher is overkill when you shoot birds. Besides macro I would not know when such values are used. Like Jake said, you'll suffer diffraction which is exactly the opposite of what you intended. If light was lower or the environment was dark, it is possible the LCD screen looks grainy, especially when you adjust the focus. I'm shooting at nights which magnifies the problem but there, the more I zoom with the LCD, often the noisier and unsharp it gets. What looks crisp full sized can look funky zoomed into. I never have that problem during the day but when light is low it can be annoying. The sensor is also not always as responsive to changes during low light which is visible on the LCD. Or maybe it isn't as much the sensor as it is the conversion of the data to what you see on your screen. But it doesn't affect the sharpness in the shot itself. [/QUOTE]
