He shot these wide open at f 2.8. I would say its pretty sharp just noisy. Could have used a lower ISO. This is an awesome lens for walk around. If you consider the shot at 24mm looks to be shot in a hallway with no lighting I think it came out pretty good. Kewlcanon you might want to consider stepping outside and and shooting something else at 24mm to show this lens gets pretty wide. |

you'd better take some samples hots at a lower ISO.. XTi is bad on high ISO. |

If it looks soft to you then send it to Canon that's the advantage of buying lens with warranty!. |

Yeah, I would unpack it and take some more shots---The idea is to sell the lens and you would probably have a better shot if you did it again. |

I love my 24-70. What KC did you buy every lens in the canon inventory just to try them out? I see you have a 24-105 out there and I was very tempted by your 10-22 a couple weeks ago! |

looks soft to me... should shoot one at f/4 just for comparison. BTW canon warranty is not tranferable. Just checked last week. |

Hahahah you probably new with Canon..I've sent tons of used lenses under warranty. |

When I asked them about it, they said the warranty does not transfer. But when it comes to it, the will repair the lens as long as it's under the warranty period. |
