Nice scene. To my eye both look a bit overexposed, with less contrast and vivid colors than I think was possible there. I would like to see a little more "snap," for lack of a better word. Did you use a lens hood?

Any difference in sharpness seems negligible.

SW,

Thanks for your observations.

I was afraid that with a shutter speed of 1/60 and an aperture of f/5.6, the pictures would be too overexposed. The other day I took a couple of sample videos and added in a negative 1/3 exposure compensation. I was kind of pleasantly surprised at the result. I think I'm going to try shooting that way for a little while and see what I think.
