RE: [Digital BW] Re: Any advantage to resizing in RAW?

It’s a good idea to turn off the in-camera capture sharpening and do all the
sharpening (much needed) sharpening in Photoshop.

PK Sharpener does this very well.

In my experience, most lenses will perform best around F8-F11.  That seems
to be 
particularly true with a good zoom lens.  Some ;primes hit their peak a bit
earlier, say F5.6 
to F8.  F22 almost certainly will result in loss of sharpness due to
defraction.  Also, Canon 
Cmos chips will need much more sharpening than you are most likely used to
giving a 
CCD based medium format Digital Back.  I use a Fuji S2(CCD) and have often
noticed that 
Canon Digital images look almost blurred and very soft until given a hefty
sharpening.  I 
have even been reading the the new 1ds 11 has an even stronger Anti-aliasing
filter than 
the 1ds.
