It was mentioned to me on my Nikon BB, that the red channel in the D200 "seems" to be a factor in the preceived softness on the D200 images i get. It was also suggested to go in and sharpen just that channel, but i see no difference to that channel when i do it, and yes looks pretty soft.Although in a horse photo, red would be the major colour, would it not. I'm just trying to find a work around, instead of trying the D300 or D700, both of which have much better sharpness ratings, or lets say, less complqaints.:-) Dave > > I humbly apologise to your Holiness I was not clear. > > D > > > Godfrey DiGiorgi wrote: >> >> Then I don't understand your sentence below.
