Why is the 'Straighten' tool so crude?
Ok, it does what 'it says on the tin', fair enough. But ANY deviation from the original using the straighten tool softens the image drastically. This can be seen by slowly moving the slider back to the 0 position : you will see the image suddenly crisp up again.
Why is this? iPhoto is very competent at most of what it does, yet Photoshop manages to let you freely rotate an image without losing any of the sharpness. I've given up using the iPhoto 'Straighten' tool, as even boosting the Sharpness slider to 100% doesn't restore the original crispness entirely.
