Apr 13, 2010 15:46 | #9 All shot with my 50D and 400 5.6 lens from a tripod, but high ISO, as we had little light today, thats why some noise is visible and the fourth one is also filtered with Neat image to reduce noise, the others are not filtered, only minor adjustments have been done, + crop and all shot in RAW, Hope this helps.

Apr 13, 2010 16:13 | #13 Yes, some sharpening is done in PS, Its called smart sharpen, where we can adjust what type of sharpening we need, I normally use this on RAW images. It also has a mode for motion blurr, but it does not work on images that have a lot of motion blurr. Remember RAW images have 0 sharpening on them, so we have to sharpen to a certain degree.
