I've been looking through www.pbase.com/BAS_photography which has some unusually sharp samples from an Olympus C770.
This sample has no blur. The 1/1000s shutter speed seems to be the key, because the aperture is not narrow at f2.8, focal length 6.8mm is hardly zoom, and ISO 64 is the opposite of fast film. Yet is has faces in 3 field depths and they're all reasonably sharp. It probably was processed, but you still need a decent original to get this.
Regarding Zeiss lenses, mosy Sony cameras use them, and the portrait samples are still blurry.
Anyhow, I was asking for people's personal experiences with their point and shoots. If you own one that makes sharp portraits, I'd like to hear about it. I know the general principles, but I still need to pick a good camera. And I still have not found one sharp portrait from a Canon Powershot.
