My Merrill and Quattro cameras where all set to -1.0 since the default sharpening is very high and introduces halo artofacts in the JPEG files
Is it something only visible when JPEG out of camera is used?
No.
I am not seeing sharpness artifacts when saving a JPEG out of SPP.
I agree that review images are over-sharpened by SPP with Merrills. All my Merrills showed an overshoot in QuickMTF edge response at 0.0 sharpening. Testing raw, JPEG, TIFF showed almost no over-shoot at about -1.0.
Also, in Merrill low-res, 0.0 was quite acceptable for shrubbery and rolling hills to my eye.
was it tested with de-noising for chroma, luma and banding set on "normal" or medium (3) for all MTF tests?
What happens to MTf response when those values are changed? Just curious about what those sliders do to the MTF.
Also, which tool do you use to calculate MTF?
Sigma DP1 Merrill
Sigma DP2 Merrill
Sigma DP3 Merrill
Nikon D5000

The Sony a7CR is a high-resolution addition to the company's compact full-frame a7C series. So what did we make of it and where does it leave the a7 IV that it sits just above?
Lomography's LomoChrome '92 is designed to mimic the look of classic drugstore film that used to fill family photo albums. As we discovered, to shoot with it is to embrace the unexpected, from strange color shifts to odd textures and oversized grain.
The LowePro PhotoSport Outdoor is a camera pack for photographers who also need a well-designed daypack for hiking and other outdoor use. If that sounds like you, the PhotoSport Outdoor may be a great choice, but as with any hybrid product, there are a few tradeoffs.
The Sony a7C II refreshes the compact full-frame with a 33MP sensor, the addition of a front control dial, a dedicated 'AI' processor, 10-bit 4K/60p video and more. It's a definite improvement, but it helps if you value its compact form.
Why is the Peak Design Everyday Backpack so widely used? A snazzy design? Exceptional utility? A combination of both? After testing one, it's clear why this bag deserves every accolade it's received.
If you want a compact camera that produces great quality photos without the hassle of changing lenses, there are plenty of choices available for every budget. Read on to find out which portable enthusiast compacts are our favorites.
