Sharp Photos.. I have none

Mon Aug 17, 2009, 4:40 AM


Having a little tiff over my sony's sharpness quality. When I'm taking photos; usually of fast moving horses like show jumpers etc. I can never manage to get a very on the spot sharp photo like a canon or nikon. I will almost always use unsharp mask now to get back the sharpness that I've lost but I don't want to cover up the problem with photoshop.. I want to solve it!

So I have a few theories..
1. The camera. Is it just that sony isn't capable of producing a sharp picture? OR..
2. The lens. It's a kit lens. Do I need a Karl Zeiss or.. some other expensive telephoto lens? OR..
3. The shutter speed. I usually have it set at 1/800 or 1/1000. That's basically all I need to capture everything in a frozen shot. Is it too slow to be sharp? OR..
4. My final theory. Aperture and ISO. Do they make a difference? I don't think so but you be the judge.


*sigh* I love my camera but I'm in a rut with the sharpness. Maybe I just need to work out how to love it regardless of the sharpness or experiment with the shutter speed. 1/8000 good enough for you? :X



Any comments and ideas would be greatly appreciated..
