Hi, thanks for your comments/thoughts so far! I've done a couple more test shots this morning with the cameras sat on a table to keep them steady, in order to rule out motion blur. It doesn't seem to be anything to do with the exported files as both the RAW and Jpeg look the same - as does the preview on the camera's LCD. Fujifilm image: Nikon image:

Thanks your reply - I should have added that I have tried a number of different focus types and point sizes, all with the same result. The example image I posted was one with which I tried the smallest focus point, though the others were the same too. It does look like motion blur, particularly with the other out of focus objects in the image, however surely not at 1/680? I was also intentionally holding the camera very steadily to avoid any shake. I'm getting similar results in higher light scenes too. Unfortunately I only have the one lens to try with, but it looks to me like it could be more of a lens issue?

Hi, thanks - the Fujifilm image was f/1.8, 1/680 secs, ISO 320 and the Nikon image was very similar, but f/2 and 1/640 secs. I transferred the photos via SD card straight to Mac, and they were both 5-6 mb. Let me know if any other details would be handy. Thanks

Hi all, I've just purchased a used X-T3 plus the 23mm 1.4 lens. I'd done a fair bit of research and was expecting good things, however the images are coming out really poor with my first few test shots. The focus is really soft or missing, and there seems to be blur despite shooting very steadily and at fast shutter speeds. I also use a Nikon D7200 so have included a shot with that for comparison. I kept the settings as similar as possible, though the Nikon lens is a 35mm. Any suggestions on what might be going wrong please? Or could the camera / lens be faulty? Thanks! X-T3 image: Nikon image:
