This is what I was thought and you are probably right. I do at lot of
editorial work and so basically just process raw files in C1 and have no
need to use Photoshop, for many photos. A bit like simple printing in a dark
room. Therefore sharpen in C1. For my 10D I usually have a setting of 108
threshold 2. Some images need adjusting, but generally this works.

However I shot a job yesterday using the 1Dmk2. This had been set by Canon
to sharpening 3.
I was in a bit of a hurry,so processed images in C1 as normal, same settings
as 10d. I had a quick look at generated JPEGS, colour everything looked
fine. So sent off JPEGs. A few minutes later comment came back great pix
however hair looks frazzled. I.e. over sharpened. I reprocessed image in C1
now set at 35 and it was a lot better.

At this stage I can't tell you if the sharpness was due to use enabled
camera settings or if that is just the way it is. I have since lowered
sharpening to zero. So will see what happens.
