Photography Question 

Sheri
 

Sharpness of digital photos


 
 
I have had a Canon G5 for about 4 months now. In the beginning my photos were so crisp and clear, I was thrilled with the new camera. Now it seems all the edges of the images are jagged looking, what is the cause of this? Maybe my memory card? I have no clue here, please help!!

  Are your camera settings the same? Ie, could the camera's settings have been changed either through resetting or accidentally.

This can take the form of a "sharpness", "resolution", or "size" setting.

Another possibility would be whether the software you are using on your computer has changed.

Basically, if the images suddenly change, it might be time to double check your workflow.

Another possibility is that the lens on your camera is dirty. :)

  I did change the size that my photos are shot in to 640X480 from the factory setting which I think was 1024X768, could that have made the difference in clarity? I just got sick of resizing all the time LOL thank you for your help Wing Wong
