Sharpness

No, sharpness is not good. Could it be the 800 ISO film? Why use 800 ISO film with a good sharp lens?

sharpness

I have no studio light ,onle used a lamp and small halogen lamp on right side. I used 800 iso because I thought it would be impossible to catch smoke with a faster film in this light condition( in combination with the diafragma I used) Scanning 35mm with a flatbedscanner is asking for trouble. There is also a softness in the picture and that is from the kodak 800. I'll try to scan it with proper scanner and compare the result. Thank's for your comment.
