Selecting pixel sharpness
A special mode of the
camera allows the pixels
provided by the CCD sensor
to be saved with different
sharpness characteristics
(digital sharpening).
This feature should,
however, not be confounded
with focusing of the lens.
Press the MENU button on
the camera back and use the
four-way control to select
either Hard, Normal or Soft
under Image Sharpness.
When the camera is
switched off, it will auto-
matically reset to Normal =
unchanged saving of image
data.
In most cases it is advisable
to save the image data
unchanged, that is, neither
digitally sharpened nor
softened.
Digital sharpening enhances
the visual impression of
sharpness by contour
sharpening through
numerical manipulation of
pixel characteristics (for
example, at the borders of
bright and dark details).
Digital softening is ana-
logous
However, since this overall
technique will often enhance
unwanted detail as well,
such as skin blemishes in
portraits, it is usually more
convenient to sharpen or
soften (very carefully) only
later, using suitable PC
image-processing software.
