As mentioned, NO.

it's sometimes desired as an effect to certain pics. Some even add in noise in the digital editing stage to induce some grainy effect.

high ISO?

even ISO 100 also appear grainy. was meaning the photo appear grainy when is seen in the resolution it was being taken.

sorry guys. I shouldn't have used the word grainy, would be more accurate to say appear blur

Flickr has the option to view at orignal resolution.

grainy and blur are very different.
Blur is usually casued by camera shake while grainy photos are caused by high ISO and/or long exposure.

Both when used creatively can produce good photos

If you upload the pictures in their original sizes, Flickr will resize them to a few sizes but will still retain the original.

grainy sometimes good for the gritty look.

Nowadays, the chroma noise looks less appealing, but if taken with b&w, it still has some favour there.

I Love grainy B&W, :heart: lots of feel in them. If it is blur then maybe focus problem??

After comparing some of my photo taken @ ISO 100, realise there is one photo taken at native resolution is not blur the detauils quite clear , so I suppose is either my setting or there is handshake during photo taking

Do share the pic and also your settings that the picture was taken at. It could also be a low DOF due to a wide aperture and blurness due to low shutter speed or a combination of them...
