•  Support Sharp enough to my taste. Very nice composition (typical Holland !). Shame of the red car. FP to me.--Jebulon (talk) 23:22, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
•  Oppose Lacking sharpness overall!!!!! --Llorenzi (talk) 06:49, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
•  Support -- GerardM (talk) 09:46, 1 April 2011 (UTC) Please have a look at high resolution and find how sharp the picture really is.
  • I am really surprised by the "lack of sharpness" comments. This image was taken with a Canon 5DMKII with a L-series lens stopped down to f/11 to get the greatest sharpness out of it. There is evidently no motion blur (1/50sec exposure with IS turned on), and I applied a slight extra degree of sharpness on post-processing. Focus point was set on the mill itself (as confirmed by the EXIF data). I really encourage people to look at the full-res image and judge from the original uploaded file and not from the thumbnails. --Murdockcrc (talk) 10:39, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
    • This means nothing. Your body/lens may suffer from off focusing, I as lately experienced. You may also have locked the focus on any element, and reframed before shooting (though this is very unlikely here)... There are tons of possibilities. - Benh (talk) 11:43, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
•  Oppose No wow. Oversharpened. I don't like the framing/composition. - Benh (talk) 11:43, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
•  Oppose Mediocre quality. Apart from the mentioned issues also tons of CA. W.S. 14:32, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

•  Support Lacking sharpness? Tons (!?) of CA? Perhaps it's not a lens problem, but rather a screen problem with some reviewers? -- MJJR (talk) 21:53, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

 Comment Sorry MJJR, I think that it is not a screen problem with some reviewers: The user upload a new version at 09:37, 04-04-2011. I don't like this action without comunication here--Miguel Bugallo 22:10, 5 April 2011 (UTC) You can see the lateral lines of the windmill in the others versions--Miguel Bugallo 22:26, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

•  Support great shot depicting the power of the canon 5d mark ii and the beauty of the de zoeker windmill. it is so sharp it can cut you. please reconsider documenting your file changes when uploading newer version. using {{Photo Information}} is useful for providing information on the equip you used to create this shot. regards, PETER WEIS TALK 22:31, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
