The first photo is very sharp for a casual hand held photo. Add a little more post processing sharpening will be even sharper.
Don't compare it to those studio shots with controlled lighting and shoot on tripod.
yeap 2nd and 3rd pic is shoot at relatively high iso
yeap you might be correct, i do have shaky hands
i was browsing thru some website which explains sharpness on images, where one of the criteria is seeing the eyelashes clearly, line by line, not smudges even in low resolution
mine are totally lacking in that....
i try to shoot at 1/80 at least, if not faster
i understand that. but my images are lacking that kind of *snap-finger* sharpness i seen on magazines leh...
i used spot metering and auto-focus on the center of the frame, then reframe the shot
1st: iso100, f2.8, 1/320
2nd: iso800, f8, 1/160
3rd: iso400, f2.8, 1/1600

comparing with images from your flickr, there is a significant level of "clear-ness" (i don't know how to describe) from mine. I have very little clue on how to achieve that...- How much sharpening are you doing in post processing now? What software or plugins? I just randomly added a high pass sharpening layer and you can start to see those "count eyelashes" thingy you are referring to. But at the same time, noise will be sharpened as well.
- For those magazine shots, I'm not sure how much post production they are doing behind the scene.
- For the focus and reframe, most of the time, on crop camera, it isn't that big of an issue. But I suspect it's your subject that moved that bit off. Causing the original intended focused spot to be shifted.

Hi guys,
Did anyone order 6D from Quiet Electronics Store? Their price is very attractive... Is this a scam?
Hi All,
I got.a quote from Cathay photo for 6D at S$2192.
Comes with 8GB card and usual accessories.
And collect $210 NTUC vouchers from CSC.
So do anyone have any better price share?
Ya, body only.
Still wondering if Canon coming out with 6D Mk2
Ditto. I always shoot with silent shutter.It's still a great camera, so I'll be happy to keep shooting with it. Pressing the pretty silent shutter is so pleasing to my ears.
Does anyone know how to setup a fast button to enable/disable external flash on Canon 6D? Now I can only turn on/off flash power to control it. Thanks.
