Maybe you have Soft Filter checked in the camera properties panel?

Looks like grayscale noise an sharpening filter. The photoshopped postprocessed image looks even more real then the original. Nice.

I saw the filters at the image processing... there is a sharp filter and a whole buch of others.. Guess that might be a place to start.

Have you set your aa to medium? It looks sharper when its at enhanced low (for me). Also test your d.o.f.
