Originally posted by skolkmeier I think your photos are a lot sharper than mine. Maybe because I used a cpl? I did very little PP on mine as well. And I'm shooting jpg, not raw. That might make a difference.
Thanks, but I don't know about that, a CPL possibly can degrade the quality a little, but it wouldn't be much. I wouldn't use it for birds in the woods because I want all the shutter speed I can get. I don't think jpg should affect sharpness. More of technique, some days it seems like I can't hold the camera still, other days everything's good. But it does seem like the stuff I do today is generally better than previously, shooting steadier now. Sometime I'll get sloppy and remember to slow down, go back to the basics, left hand under the lens, left arm pulled against the body. On the 300 I always have the left hand under the tripod mount.
