If u were to compare both lenses shot on a 4R photo, sharpness would be negligible. But if u really crop it, the difference will be noticeable.

does that means that if i were to print larger than 4R, the sharpness would be noticeable as well?

IMO if above 8R, can see the difference.

thanks for the tip.. if i need to print big size, izit better for me to PP to enhance the sharpness or dun do PP?

IMO don't do any PP, fresh from the cam's always best.

Yeah it's true, unless u want to correct some details on the pics or add effects. Other than that, no DI is best.

Go get yourself a cheap film body and shoot. It's a good learning experience.

Yeah. Before i went digital, i was shooting film and slides. The quality and colour of slides can really blow u off!

the closest in digital that comes close to slides so far is Nikon with saturation setting pushed up. not too bad :think:

But i find Nikon's colours a bit too saturated, then become not so natural.

Yes... what a blow job!!! lol..... :bsmilie:

Get yourself a film cam... and go shoot.. sure no regret.... at least, experience it.. loan one and test it out... then, you will know what is REAL TEST in photography....

:bsmilie: That phrase can be misleading. ;p

i find the 24-105 results average strait out of the cam, it really needs sharpening. comparatively, i had to increase cam builtin sharpening to +3/4 when this lens is on, but set to 0 when using the 70-200. i thot of bringing it to CSC for recaliberation but the fact that indoor pics are fairly sharp whereas outdoor ones are not, i can't justify.
