Subject: Re: peso: A Small Gallery, no softening this time.
I think Bil was being facetious. I don't see anything soft about the unadulterated images. Although it's impossible to determine sharpness conclusively from a small web-based image, the look of her eyes suggest that these are quite sharp.
I may have missed the focus slightly on a few of em.
Sometimes I forget to breath.
Here is a detail from one of the pictures.
Again, this is a straight RAW conversion with no USM added, and is at 100%
My default settings are on the low side as well, I had the sharpness setting in the converter at 25.

I have no sharpness issues with the 77.
I find I do like it more as a portrait lens on the digital than I ever did on film. I think film is more sensitive to some of the lens's abilities than the digital sensor.
