>>How come Lars' 135 f2 is so much sharper than the others....
Huh? If his pictures look sharper than mine, it's an illusion caused by sizing down a picture with a lot of fine detail. Does this one look soft to you?
Well then... here is mine! This is my first picture post! Took me more than 300 posts to get here I guess my new 70-200 will become my favorite lens, but since I haven't got any shots developed from it yet, I'll go with this one.
This is Kaikoura, New Zealand shot with the EOS 30 and the EF 20mm on Kodachrome 200. http://n.ethz.ch/student/parnez/FM/Kaikoura.jpg
How come Lars' 135 f2 is so much sharper than the others....
Have the others been softened
Probably because of 2 things (one or maybe both). Slower than able shutter speed, or the method used to downsize the image. If you downsize with "Bicubic Sharper" in photoshop, even soft images come out crisp! Or use some other type of sharpening tool/plugin. I doubt it would be a miss focus, anytime I miss focus with the 135 if I'm shooting close to wide open, you can *really* tell.
Nice images guys! I especially like the odd DOF plane on the TSE lens

Learn something new here every day. Thanks Dan. Too bad I only have 8mp to downsize, not 16.6
