[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 524098, member: 3903"] Were you by any chance using a CP filter for these shots? The shutter speed<iso<aperture combination tells me there either wasn't enough light or you were using a filter when the light was too low. Both shots show camera movement. This is how the more resolution on a sensor can be. Don't forget that when you go to 100% magnification with a 36mp file, the print you would get is probably 5 or 6 feet large. And you would never never look at that sized picture from the distance you are from your computer screen when you look at the 100% mag. It's called pixel peeping and can help you get better results, but it can also be discouraging as to why you spent so much money on a pro camera that is not used right. Now for the shots, you could try giving them a bit of sharpening in post production and they probably could be used (not for billboards though). Just try to look at them on your HDTV from a reasonable distance and see how you feel about them. But the main thing is be aware of the shutter speed limits when using a telephoto lens. Also read the VR lens instructions about giving the lens the time to set VR BEFORE going down further on the shutter. Hope you can get the results you were hoping for eventually with your present gear. [/QUOTE]
