My pics always seem to be soft focused not sharp. I have examined the pics to see if the camera locked in on the wrong part of the composition or user error however nothing is sharp. my lenses are L series so I do not attribute my problem to these, does anyone else have any idea of what it might be?

I usually bring into either Bride or Lightroom for minor processing; Not quite sure how to post images with EXIF D1 Mark III, 30D, 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM,15mm f/2.8 Fisheye,EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM,EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM, 4-580EXII

If you just downsize them before posting (don't same for web) the EXIF should stay intact.

Nov 10, 2007 21:10 | #7 They are straight out of bridge; I might adjust the exposure contrast our brightness slightly but that is it. I just notice how everyone else's work I have seen posted looks in focus and sharp. what size/resolution do you suggest to post? I have tried to attach a file via the manage attachments and it does not work for me. jra wrote in post #4291929  Well, it could be many many things....as mentioned above, post a few examples otherwise everyones answer is just a shot in the dark.

Well, that's why you need to post a 100% crop. Preferably cropping the area where your focal point was. Also, find the EXIF data and post it as well so we could see the shutter speed/iso/aperture. john | gear | web hosting deal for POTN members!
