A degree of sharpening can't be avoided, it's an integral part of the Bayer 
interpolation. The sharpening can be set to the arbitrary factor of -2 
(minimum) in camera. At this setting the in-camera processed images are far 
less sharpened than most other cameras provide at their a minimum settings. And 
contrary to what you may have heard from others their is absolutely minimal 
advantage between saving JPEG and TIFF in camera so long as the JPEG file is 
saved at minimum compression.
