All my pics with my a700

Need some help here. ERRRR

Dan, bump the sharpness on the jpegs

Up 2.

Also, check and see if you are on firmware version 1.02 or higher..

I have ver.03 and

I shoot in the Raw. I do get chilled at times. My sharpness was -1. I put it up to +2 and I will test it tomorrow.
BTW I got my 70-300G today . I got PO when I could not get a sharp pic with it.
Thanks Carl
Dan

Awesome Dan

Look forward to your shots :)

Here is one I took late

this evening. It was so soft I had to sharpen the hell out of it.

Click to raise

pretty shot, hmm almost looks oversharpened maybe

to me at least.

Have you tried anything like same shot with same lens, same apt, different cameras? And see if it really is any sharper on the other camera.

You could compare a jpeg vs a raw shot, or using a different raw converter, or different converter settings... If you do the jpeg comparison make sure it's on updated firmware though of course.

Seems odd

Hi Dan,

Nice shot by the way. Seems odd that you're struggling to get a sharp image from the A700- especially with that lens. I know that Sony took a more cautious approach to sharpening the images on the A700 onwards, but a) that shouldn't affect RAW and b) you should be able to sharpen them after with relative ease.

Hope it's not a faulty camera!

Cheers
Andrew
