I see you shot it at F4 - I was wondering if you'd get a sharpness boost if you stopped down the lens by 1-2 stops for optimal sharpness.

This lens is extremely sharp to the edges straight from wide-open but the main reason for shooting at f/4 was wind-conditions and unstable ground. It's still very sharp at f/4 though, here is a 1:1 crop sample:
