[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 636792, member: 13090"] Then here's what I suggest you do... Press the Menu button and drop down to the [B]Shooting Menu[/B] (camera icon) Highlight [B]Set Picture Control[/B] and click right one time to enter the Picture Control menus. I use Standard when shooting JPG, but pick your poison. Know also that all the different Picture Controls have their own set of sub-menus and settings. Click right one more time to enter the Settings menu for the Picture Control you want to work with. From this menu, drop down to the "Sharpening" setting and bump it up to +7. For whatever reason, by default, Nikon sets this option really low, at something like like 2 or 3, and if you haven't changed anything that's where the setting will be. You can try using other settings here but +7 seems to do a really nice job; there was a noticeable difference in image quality once I made this adjustment. I don't adjust anything else in this menu; the Sharpness setting is the only one I feel needs help but some people like to bump the Saturation setting by a tick. Try it, see what you think. You can always go back and change it if you don't like what you're seeing. [/QUOTE]
