Sharpness - What are your thoughts?

[JanWillemD]

I'm interested to hear what your thoughts are on some short footage I shot, especially on sharpness. First part isn't color graded, second part is. Sharpness was on 0, shot in D-Cinelike and did a 'tap to focus' before recording. Let me know what you're seeing so I can check if it matches my experiences.

Looks kinda blurry, I've been doing a custom setting of +1, 0, 0 as per a popular youtube guys recommendation. Tom's Techtime I believe.

To me it looks like the bottom right is in focus and the rest slightly out.

Definitely soft. Try bumping the sharpness, as madman suggested. It's under styles. I suggest using raw stills to make a determination, since they are uncompressed.

Thanks @geigy @Shotinthenads @madman4049. The reason I asked this is because in my opinion the left 20% of the screen looks more blurry than the other parts. I will try some more settings but I'm doubting if this is because of the settings or it's a lens issue.

That struck me as well: Center is in focus, (lower) left is blurry.

I agree - my Mavic was doing the same thing and it was easier to spot in a large raw still.

I am liking either -1 or 0 anything more just looks horrible and anything less looks to soft

Mine has always tended to look a touch out of focus on the right side.
I like to have the grid lines on and tap to focus more or less on one of those towards the right, which evens it out pretty good.

Thanks, I will definitely try that.
