I just mention this because I have the R80 and find it soft WO at close range but not a distance.
True. The more distance the sharper the R80 is. From my observation, lenses with fixed rear element usually got better closeup performance. R80 has moving rear element and it will move away toward infinity. 85L is better in this regard. Maybe the Minolta is another. This principle also applies on macro lenses.
