There was a thread about the lack of sharpness on the *ist-d sample pictures. One of the things that is open for debate is should sharpening be done in camera or in post processing. I prefer too little vs.. too much in camera sharpening as the control in Photoshop is usually much better. The thing that did bother me was that there were no bold colors in any of the samples. It reminded me of when the Sigma came out and all the examples for a long while were pastels and muted colors. Again, however, it is easier and probably better to add saturation and/or contrast in Photoshop then to try and tone down an overly saturated image. I am glad to see that they are offering Adobe RGB as a color space option as it has a much larger gamut then sRGB.
