I am puzzled. My Nikon LS-4000 delivers razor sharp images. I see very
little if any of the blurriness you mention. I have carefully checked shots
taken with a tripod and L series Canon lens on Supra 100 and zoomed to
2-400% in Photoshop. Very sharp. Maybe I just got a good one. I don't
think I'm ignorant enough not to know the difference.
