i heard thats a common problem on the sp90..
but it might b due to my postprocessing..all the 3 pics were heavily gaussian blurred as per the girls request...my later pics with sp90 looks okay to me..

No need to worry yourself sick over a lens for landscape. Your 18-70mm kitlens will serve you very well for landscape until you feel the need for a 'faster' or 'sharper' or 'wider' lens.

Do not underestimate the kitlens. I am basically still shooting with a 'kit lens' - the 18-250mm that is bundled as a kit lens for the A700 here! Hehehehehehe!

So shoot first, buy later.

Is it? I've never owned a SP90 before. Have you tried sending back for calibration or something? I don't think it's due to post processing as if you see the 3 pictures, it's sharper on the clothes instead of the eye of subject. .

achew: arghh studip screamyx, cant see ur pic. refresh2 also cant..

btw viking. wat is "suffer from front focus" can explain a bit?

ps: ryzan tomorow ur turn ar..

ya....this streamyx is stupid...pay pay 100 the line so damn slow...like the siput siput wan...if this line can i shoot with macro,i will show u all.

2morrow my turn....

if i nt wrong..it means that ur camera/lens suppose to focus at the subject..but instead..it focuses at the point slightly front of the point u wan it to be...


@viking
ya..i think i came across with a few ppl with the front/back focus with tamron...nt sure whether my lens had the prob..but another point to note is..for all that 3 pictures..its actually my first time using the lens..and first time manual focusing...could it b my prob?lol

Front focus is a lens defect whereby your lens tend to focus slightly in front of the focus point you intend to focus.

The spec frame is sharper than the eye


The elbow part is sharper than the eye


The shirt is sharper than the eye

recommended flash?

haha..auto focusing on sp90 is extremely slow....as most of my portraits r candid shots...so i don really hav time to wait for auto focus...

f42-f58...its depend u budget.

wad hav u done to the kids..they look frightened..

nv use flash??the kids look a lil bit dark..

The skin tone seems like burnt out too.

Should have use flash to fill in a little

The burnt out skin tone and the harsh shadow is a nono. Use a reflector or flash?
