In most digital cameras these days, starting on the low-end DSLRs, you can do sharpening in camera. And again, if all you want to do is get the best possible image with the least amount of effort, then I suppose camera sharpening will be ok. But for the serious fine art or portrait photographer, turn off the in-camera sharpening. It's not as good as the sharpening tools in Photoshop and it's now available on raw images to begin with. But on JPG, the in-camera sharpening just introduces and accentuates artifacts you can do without. And most people just getting started in Photoshop have a tendency to over-sharpen anyway. I know I did when I first started and to take a JPG that has been compressed and then sharpened and then add more sharpening to it later in Photoshop, well, that's just way overkill. Your images just will not look very good. Don't forget, and this is something you'll hear me say quite a lot in this tutorial, less is more, especially when it comes to sharpening. I'm going to show you later how to do sharpening the right way. So let's get off on the right foot and turn off the in-camera sharpening. Just say no.
