Focus

Just been looking back (and back, and back, and back) over some of the pics I have posted here from the A200, and comparing them to the A57 that I have now...

I'm beginning to think, looking at the difference in the quality, that there really *was* something wrong with the A200. The images were all a lot softer, blurred and *not quite in focus* in spite of my best efforts...this is one of the reason...no...this is THE reason I stopped posting here. No matter what I did, no matter how much effort I put into trying to take a decent picture they came out mediocre. And yet with the A57 the shots are so much sharper...the *macro* style that I tried and failed so many times in the past are...okay, easy isn't the right word, but certainly achievable now.

That's...actually a little bit annoying. I've stayed pretty much away from photography for years because I though I was doing something wrong...

Re: Focus

Sometimes it can be very hard to tell if something's not right if you have nothing to compare to. Glad you've got your mojo back properly now though!
