Over the years, I've noticed some photographers post insanely sharp images. Primarily portraits of people. Like everything is perfectly crisp even when they post to Facebook and social media programs that generally destroy resolution.
I wouldn't get similar sharpness even if I boosted my shots 100%.
Are they using crazy expensive lenses or do the newer mirrorless cameras just capture more of a crisp look? It's almost as if the resolution is 2-3x what I shoot in. All I've ever shot with is the 5D series.
The only time I've obtained similar sharpness was using art lenses up-close, but those are super heavy so I can't imagine photographers are using them often.
Is this all software related? Are they using some specialized program that perfectly sharpens each image? If so, what are they using? I'm not talking about focus. Specifically sharpness.
