You think the Fuji is less sharp? Granted, the Fuji image seems to make the type look bloated, but the interior spaces of the type are fully maintained and the dots are maintained. The letters themselves are being eaten away on the Sigma image, and it’s already noisy.

My guess is that the Fuji represents the actual printing quality way better than the Sigma. And the “bloated look from the Fuji can easily be reduced with sharpening while still ending up with text that is truer to the font than the Sigma is in this image.

The Sigma aleady looks oversharpened and interior spaces are alreay severely compromised. I really don’t see how you can call the Sigma sharp.
