My old nifty was pretty much useless at anything larger than f2.8 or so. Canon 40d, 20d / Canon EF-S 10-22mm / Canon EF 24-105 L / Canon EF-S 55-250mm IS / Siggy 30mm 1.4 / Canon Speedlite 580ex II

Thanks Mate, I would try shooting in Manual as the meter can be fooled too often , as for your photo I used the unsharp filter to get rid of the fog on the photo then i used Artistic Tools from Kubota it was the Enter the Dragon Action at around 50 %. then I sharpen a bit with the smart sharpen.
