Also, at what f stop is everything in focus?
Much of what determines the sharpness in a photo comes from your camera's aperture. If you want everything in the photo be sharp and “in focus”, you will need to select a very closed aperture like F22. As you increase your aperture number, the subjects closer and further away from the subject in focus become sharper.
Also, which aperture is sharpest? The sharpest aperture of your lens, known as the sweet spot, is located two to three f/stops from the widest aperture. Therefore, the sharpest aperture on my 16-35mm f/4 is between f/8 and f/11. A faster lens, such as the 14-24mm f/2.8, has a sweet spot between f/5.6 and f/8.
In respect to this, does ISO affect sharpness?
This causes sharp details to appear fuzzy, affecting the overall sharpness of the image. Wherever possible, use your camera's lowest ISO setting (typically around ISO 100 or 200), as long as it doesn't negatively affect other settings such as your shutter speed.
Why are my photos not sharp?
As I noted in the introduction, a lack of sharpness can be due to the aperture, shutter speed, or ISO settings. In the case of aperture, if your depth of field (the area of the image that's in sharp focus) is too shallow, you might find that your subject isn't sharp, as seen in the image above.
