[OM] Re: E1 vs. 10D, D100, D70, etc...

[Jim Sharp]

Lack of sharpness with the D100 is one complaint I absolutely don't 
have. I find it to be adequately sharp even with default settings.

I know it's lens dependent, and I'm wondering if some of the sharpness 
complaints around the net have to do with people using long non-VR 
lenses, or non-Nikon glass. I know a friends Tamron 28-200 is very soft 
out at the long end. She even commented on it and she's not usually all 
that critical. I know it's possible to build a zoom with 7X or more 
range. I'm just not sure it's a good idea...
