I\'ve been shooting with both the Canon 24 and 17 TSE since I got my first A7R and now the R2. The 17 is definitely sharper in my experience. My 24 performs fine but I have to be very careful with focus and check all corners for focus when shooting. I think the problem is when I focus too far away in the center of the image, it causes the edges, (especially the left edge), to be soft. Don\'t ask me why it\'s only the left side - doesn\'t make sense. Before I purchased the lens I rented at least six of them over a few month period and they all seemed to have the same issue. I thought it might be my metabones adapter or camera, but no other lens has the problem. I live with it and make sure to check focus carefully and the images are perfect. I try to always shoot at f11. The 11-24 f4 and 24-70 f2.8II are both sharper in my experience so there is certainly no benefit to using this lens over one of those if I didn\'t need shift capabilities. BTW- I always focus manually through the viewfinder and disregard the focus scale on the lens barrel when on the adapters, as they are not even close in my experience. YMMV.
