Reading 40D reviews the one common praise is 'much sharper than my

Is it really that big of a difference? I always thought sharpness is
primarily a function of the lens, not camera. Or have they (Canon) gone
for
weak AA filter in 40D? If this is the case, havent the demosaicing
algorythm
changed?

Or maybe just more in-camera sharpening, or stronger contrast.
Most people cannot do a lab examination of sharpness, lacking
the equipment and knowledge.


Could be. There are a couple people on dpreview who are getting startling
results that seem to pop off the page and they are shooting JPG.
