Re: Excellent, but...

I could tell what the issue was within 30 seconds of seeing his example. Softness at 45mm (even worse than normal for that lens), and overaggressive noise reduction settings, for starters.

I could see the excessive NR anyway

In-camera picture style settings are used by almost every conversion software (automatically) as a starting point for editing. Profiles can be applied, and his were obviously off if so.

Ahh - I use capture one which applies Nothing automatically  (even CA or distortion), its one reason why I like it - it  takes no notice of picture styles so not I`m used to that happening .

Samples from the OP here would really help us out. In fact it would be just guessing otherwise. Supplied RAWs would certainly also help.

yep . he didn`t up load it .... I`ll be trying a couple more 15-45s over the next two days so it`ll be interesting how they perform compared to the one I tried in the shop from the used M100 kit I posted samples from
