Hi,
I purchased the a55 with stock lens in June 2011. I have taken hundreads of photos since then and find the camera easy and enjoyable to use. However about 90% of my landscape shots are not sharp when viewed at 100%, most others shots are Ok.
I have tried different apertures right up to F29 and used the scenic/landscape setting but these have not made and difference.
Has anyone any idea what the problem might be.
