Shutter speed was 1/180, not quite wide open (4.0), and yes I was shooting handheld. The Lightroom settings I take to be pertinent were under Detail: Luminance 100, Luminance/detail 40, and color 50. > Aside from the other considerations, I have found that backing way off > on the NR is very helpful.

That will leave you with more apparent sharpness. I will give that a try—and take it to heart for the future. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA [email protected] "What does it mean...that the world is so beautiful?" - Mary Oliver -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
