Hi Guys.
I have been with Canon Digital since the days of the S40. and now on my 4th. I have just bought the Eos 400D :heart: and find it to be a delight to use. (NOTE: If you can afford to. buy it as body only and get a better lens. The kit lens (EFS 18 -55 3.5 - 5.6 II) is a fine little starter. But if you want better you need to upgrade). I would reccomend it to any one ..... BUT.... The whole point of going up the megga pixel and well known brand trail, is to get SHARP DEFINITION.... and frankly I am not getting any better than with my G5 which was only 5 Mp.
I can pop them through Photoshop (It takes a L O N G W H I L E to put 1000 images through Photoshop). and sharpen them up. But to get the full definition it requires 200% unsharp mask. Have you ever seen an image processed with 200% unsharp Mask.... Not pretty. any way why should I spend £500 on a camera which takes soft images....?
Does any one know how I can get sharp images from the camera? or from a quick fix out of the camera? or is it just My specific camera ? does any one have one which takes razor sharp pics ? etc etc.....
Many thanks.....
