<p>[QUOTE=&quot;geekpryde, post: 3851446, member: 36248&quot;]With enough sharpening to an image, all sorts of things start looking like they could be DDO /DDR. The sharpening, and the halo effect that comes with sharpening, sort of exaggerate lines and create the illusion of doubling that either isn&#039;t there are all, or is not the sort of doubling that anyone cares about. The cell phone photos in the OP, have a ridiculous amount of sharpening. Older / cheaper cell phones do this to overcome that fact that for the most part, they are low-resolution and low quality. At a normal zoom, most people don’t care, don’t notice, and they will only ever view your family photo, or sunset, or dog picture on their own small phone screen. The problem comes when you try to zoom in, crop, and do close up macro type photos. The resolution is just not there to crop these crappy cell phone pictures. So, the over-sharpening becomes extremely obvious when used to show things like close up coin images.</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=101651]@Jj Oliva[/USER] I would recommend if you are going to play the &quot;search for varieties&quot; game, you invest in a slightly better camera setup. You don’t need to spend a lot of money. Older used gear can be had for a song.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
