f/4-f/5.6 works rather well.
JPG files are sharpened in the camera so a RAW file will appear soft for the most part when compared to a normal image. You have to add a little bit of sharpening when you get them out of the camera.
Thats a good range. I used to like in camera sharpening... until I saw that forgetting about it in camera, and doing it post process gave me WAY better pics.
Now I just concentrate on getting a good, well exposed and well focused picture out of my camera, and post processing the little things that I want. My picture quality has increased 50% in the last 4 months by doing it that way.
What I no longer care too much about:
- white balance... done post processing
- noise... if I shoot high ISO, rectified post processing
- sharpening... post processing
I *may* touch saturation if the picture comes out a little bland due to overcast or clouldy days, but 95% of the time, thats also not something I change. Thanks to the workflow that I've fallen into, I can also now handle 700-800 pictures in a short afternoon, where as before, that would have taken me a whole weekend to process.
