It's so hard to compare your photos to mine, Michael, because of the unknown differences in the edge sharpness of the paintings.

How far from the paintings were you when you took these shots?

Yours do seem to be less grainy, also, than the one I posted that shows the problem I'm having. (The shot showing the painting with the whole head of the boy.)

Mari, I like your idea of focusing on the edge of a grey card first. (If I tape it off to the side of the painting I won't have to let go of the shutter to remove the card before pressing the shutter the rest of the way.)

Or maybe I'll just see if my camera will let me do manual focus. I used to do that all the time on my film cameras but I don't know if my digital has that capability.
