<p>I've had new computers fail right out of the box or shortly thereafter (one HP desktop and a Toshiba laptop), my first D90 developed a glitch about a week after I bought it. I exchanged it for another one at Costco. The 2nd one works flawlessly however the kit 18-55 VR, which was perfect for almost a year, "suddenly" lost focus across some areas of the image. Nikon repaired it under warranty and it is now working and focusing great. The Tokina 11-16 I own works great. It's not a perfect world. I don't think the 11-16 is much different in general than other complex mass produced equipment, some units are not going to be in spec. </p>

<p>Then there's operator error. Me included. <br>

<p>I like Pascal's photo very much. I would have cropped out the wall in the foreground, perhaps made it horizontal.</p>

Thanks for the reply. I didn't think it could be done but was hopeful someone knew some shortcut or trick. I'll look up Phottix Cleon II, I don't even know what that is.</p>

<p>Apparently it is not possible to trap focus using the ML-L3 remote on a D90.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Matt, Ellis, Peter & Lex,</p>

<p>I thank you for the answers, they are all good and helpful to me. I will shoot more and see the differences for myself as suggested. I think when I have an important shot I will make sure to record it as RAW + .jpg.</p>

<p>Cheers,<br>

<p>Hi all,</p>

<p>I have a D90 and was wondering what downsides, if any, there are to using the maximum sharpening settings.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
