Just started subscribing to Photoshop cc and Lightroom 5.

When viewing my photos in Lightroom they look blurred and they are NOT. They are pin sharp using the Faststone application I used to use. Is there something that alters the general sharpness of all pics before editing, to how they should be.

PS - I dont mean in the editing stage in Develop but in Library mode. HELP.

They are RAW images. Not sure how to adjust preview settings and quality.

Just tried exporting a RAW photo to a JPEG and its sharp. So to view my RAW files properly, I need to export them all to a JPEG file. Seems to me, RAW is a lot of hassle especially if not wanting to alter the original file. Surely, this cant be the case
