EOS M50 - images feel soft. Is there settings I can change?
3 weeks ago
I have an EOS M50, with kit lens, the zoom, 22mm and 28mm macro. I traded in all my old tech for this (sadly... the OM-D E-M5 I had was beautifully sharp, but had an issue with high shutter speeds jamming the shutter), and never been happy with it.
It was new out of the box, I've not really changed settings much as I'm not... good at that kind of thing. Jpgs SOOC feel soft, like it's missed focus, and I've always put it down to the fact that the camera gods hate me, or I had a bad model.
Now I've seen that the kit lens can be soft if not stepped down (which could be part of the problem), and I'm wondering if settings are another factor.
The reality is, this forum is full of people that praise the EOS M range, so it's either (most likely) that I'm doing something wrong, or that the hardware is wrong (much less likely), so I wanted to ask, is there any settings I should look into changing for the M50, to get sharper better images out of it?
I can (when it's not lightly snowing, in the midlands UK no less) go outside and take some sample pictures to attach, I haven't got anything deliberate to hand.
I have been trying to sell this to get either a A6x00 or maybe an A7, but the reality is, if this camera is actually great at taking pictures, why waste the money on moving systems, especially with an EF-M to EF adapter to add some sharp fast glass from the DSLR ranges too?
