[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 647558, member: 3903"] In my opinion, shooting any lens wide open will decrease sharpness a little bit, specially when the overall picture is white, it seems to show more. When taking photos of more than one person, one needs to have enough depth of field so that all are in focus. In this case, this could explain your dissatisfaction. Third, a bit of fill-in flash would have helped to fill the dark eyes. So, all in all, I don't think that the lens has a problem, but you could have improved these shots by: Using a higher iso and closing the aperture to at least 5.6, and using a bit of controlled fill-in flash to balance the light on the faces. Practice makes perfect and a picture is never perfect :) Enjoy your Nikon! [/QUOTE]
