Load the original file and the returned file into layers in Photoshop. Set blending to difference. If there's a change in sharpness, you will see a nonzero result.

I am unclear. Are you viewing the file from Amazon or downloading and saving the file from Amazon and then viewing it on your computer?

Read the thread - the question has been answered a few pages back. He was viewing the file from Amazon, and when he downloaded it, it was unchanged.

One word: Carbonite. Switch to their automated cloud backup service, and you will never have another problem.

Files in the cloud are so much like clouds in the sky: their content and their meaning keeps changing every minute.

Here is what I really love about Carbonite. They say that should you have an urgent need to quickly restore your files, they will - for a fee - send you a disk with your files on it.

If you're concerned about securing the content of your images and other files, keep them closer to the earth than to the cloud.

As I explained in a subsequent post, after the original, at the time of my original post I was uploading raw files to Amazon Photo and viewing them there. That's where I saw the lack of sharpness compared to the pre-uploaded files. In response to two or three posts asking the same question or suggesting looking at the images that had been downloaded from Amazon back to my computer, I did that and found the downloaded files were as sharp as the originals. So my problem was all due to my insufficient knowledge of the cloud storage technology and has been solved, thanks to help on this forum. I don't need the images to be sharp in cloud storage, just when they are back in my computer for printing or further editing.
I'm amazed at the number of responses to my original post. Thanks to everyone.

I save nothing to the cloud as a matter of preserving some privacy in my life.
On the other side, the nonsense teaching of "Sharing is caring" has been instilled in others for a long time now. Social media thrives on this notion. I say no thanks.
Yet in searching on my name, I've found that some public information about me has become available via the Internet. Thankfully, this information goes back only so far.

Some people like clouds.
When they go away,
it's a brighter day for everyone.
