Manual focusing on a sturdy tripod. Used live view to achieve best focus.
Camera is Rebel T1i (500d)
No processing. In camera sharpness set at 3. (other settings not modified)
All images were shot as raw, and saved as high quality jpegs.
Basically... trying to figure out what quality this lens is. Need something that is going to maintain resale value. (ie; sharp copy without any noteworthy compromises) Unfortunately this is just the third lens I\'ve bought, so not a large number of comparisons I can make. Your feedback is appreciated.
Sample image: (11mm, F5.6)
More tests:
11mm, F5.6, 1/160, 200ISO
