bill_blacker Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Rick, Jay's answer is correct. In the manual, when you set to the green p, all automatic settings are reset. Image quality, ISO and flash setting. Normal p keeps what ever you have set. Another question, most of my images look soft. What settings are you using to achieve sharper images without impacting the overall image quality? Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_kreiner Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 Bill, if you're asking me about sharper images, I'm a newbie with this camera. I'm still learning all of the functions. Some of the images I did take, I had to sharpen some of them with Paint Shop Pro. But I think that was because I was focused on someone further away in the picture then the rest of the people that were closer. I've noticed that others have mentioned this problem. I'll watch this forum for those in the know on this problem too. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melresnick Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 Bill and Rick, I'm pretty sure that in my case lens quality and focus were not causing the softness I asked about on this thread some time ago. I've been happier with the camera's sharpness set at +1. As Jay mentioned, we can let Minolta determine sharpness and noise or use our own judgement in the computer. Standard advice is to sharpen images as the very last step, but I ask myself how much post-processing I want to do on any but the few best shots I take. How much time would a pro be able to invest in manually sharpening each image in a job that involved, say, hundreds of shots to be delivered to a client? Life seems chock full of little trade-offs.

rick_kreiner Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Reference the metering mode and the 14 segment honeycomb pattern. I see reviews about this and they are showing an image of the homeycomb. Is this suppose to be actually seen, or is it something that is just there and not actually viewed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
