 TS-E 24f3.5 II pics | |
I was lucky to get a TS-E 24 II in Guangzhou/China. Price was RMB 12800 (USD 1.900/EUR 1350). China warranty only, but ... :-)
Like always, one should test Canon lenses before buying (most are not perfectly centered assembled which results one side to be less sharp than the other). This one seems to be a good sample. Just very slight lower edge sharpness and higher CA on left side, compared to right side (only visible at full 12 mm sidewards shift).
Very astonishing, even at full shift, the lens shows barely any CA or distortion, and that's at about a 15 mm angle of view.
For 12 mm shift upwards, f11 is sufficient to achieve optimum corner sharpness, for 12 mm shift sidewards I would recommend f16.
Full resolution pictures (nothing special, just some primary tests):
