michael_kuhne Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 The DPreview testing of the D90 indicated the normal recommended default sharpening setting of this camera to be very conservative, resulting in rather soft JPEGs straight from the camera. They do suggest an increase to +5 or 6, or thereabouts. See page 15 "features" from the test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theodora_manusaride Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 Problem solved! The vivid +3/sharpening +6 combo was, indeed, overkill. Today I only went as far as vivid+2/sharpening +5 and it went well although I can't seem to get the colours I want. At least the over sharpening is gone. Thanks guys! Thank you Eric!

eric_arnold Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 theodora, good to hear it wasn't the lens's fault. :) i think you will find the tasmron is a very capable performer. btw, i dont like the vivid setting for people pics. ok for landscapes when you want the colors to pop, but sometimes you can forget to switch back. i have +3 sharpening/SD as my default picture style, shooting JPEG. here's a 17-50 pic from earlier today:<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
