That is an interesting point that you make that P&S sharpen a lot more than SLR's. And that my PowerShot Pro1 has an L lens - I know I paid a lot for it. One wonders then why I bought the SLR..........was buying the SLR really an upgrade as I thought?? - is my SLR going to at some stage be better than my PowerShot when I learn to use it properly???

So are you saying that when you use an SLR the automatic settings really aren't that good - that it will force you to learn to use it's settings in order to get good shots? Don't get me wrong, I do want to learn, it is just an interesting concept that the SLR's auto settings don't work as well and the results aren't as sharp as the PowerShot Pro1 I have. I know I have been getting inconsistent results - some really good sharpness and colour and some fairly average.

Thanks everyone for your input. I appreciate it.
