Arnie, Now that I've mown the lawn (you can ~hear~ a Sydney lawn grow in summer, 2cm a day sometimes), pushed my son on his swing for awhile, eaten a juicy mango over the kitchen sink, and made an espresso coffee to sip at the computer, I've had a better chance to look at your shot.
Apart from the ghosting, I'd be concerned about the focus. The exif data says, "SubjectDistanceRange - Distant view", but the sharp zone seems to be within the two lines of empty parking spaces between the camera and the nearest cars, the cars and the store are very soft. You need to find out why this is. Perhaps you used AF when manual focus would have done a better job. If you used manual focus then perhaps you need a little dioptre correction at the eyepiece. If there is no defect in your eyes then you might want to check the cameras focusing accuracy, in other words whether the focusing screen and the sensor plane are correctly aligned to each other. The best way to check is with your widest lens at its widest aperture. Wide lenses have the narrowest depth of ~focus~. Long lenses are bad to test with, despite popular beliefs, because while they have very small depth of ~field~ they have very large depth of ~focus~, and small errors in mirror box alignment fall within the focusing tolerance of long lenses. I know this from experience, from a time when all my tele shots were OK but my WA shots were focused behind the subject every time no matter how carefully I checked the focus before shooting. Anyhow, check this out for your own sake, especially before you shoot anything unrepeatable. regards, Anthony Farr
