[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 484535, member: 13090"] Because we've told you on numerous occasions you need to adjust your settings. You say you're using a Sharpening setting of +9 or something, but the images you post clearly indicate you are not. You are using the "Neutral" Picture Control with a Sharpness setting of "2"; the image you posted clearly indicates this. I've told you to use the "Normal" Picture Control with a Sharpness setting of +7 and a Saturation setting of +1 but you're not. I'm telling you to turn OFF the "Active D-Lighting" setting, turn it off entirely; it increases noise in the shadows. I'm telling you to use a more appropriate aperture and shutter-speed combination because, for one thing, f/22 will cause diffraction. Try sticking to apertures like f/5.6 or f/8. Keep your shutter speed at twice the focal length of the lens you are using, MINIMUM. For instance if you are using a 50mm lens, keep your shutter speed at or above 1/100 of second. Keep your ISO in 100-400 range. Learn to post process your photos; even JPG's can use a little adjustment out of the camera to bring out their fullest potential. Do these things, consistently, and you WILL see cleaner, sharper shots.
