It would be a nice lens if it wasn't for the ghosting at wide open. Still no remedy for that, but when stopped down to f/4 or f/5.6 it is sharp enough.
The lens itself:

At wide open F/2.8:

100% crop:

It is no good for taking pictures like that, but it's kinda fun, you know

Conclusion: would be super-duper fine if it didn't ghost like that when wide open.

Looks pretty good if you can use it within it's limits though.

I'm obviously pushing it too hard....I wish I didn't get [Limit reached] on the above photos. Do you see it too?

Oh wait that wasn't intentional? Are there supposed to be photos where that is?

Now, don't be sarcastic, please - I have no idea what limit I have reached, neither how nor when it happened. It was fine yesterday evening, I think.
I was actually getting the same [Limit reached] while composing the first message in the thread, and I split the image and it worked, if I recall it correctly....up till now!

I wasn't being sarcastic! Must be some sort of forum setting, I'll check it out.

You did! Thank you! I'm happily within limits now!
Will this limit annoyance show up again?

Not unless you post more than 50 gallery items on a page.

You also increased the default preview size, I see.
That was useful too!

voyager · « **Reply #11 on:** June 11, 2010, 08:20:23 PM »

Yeah, I didn't even think I could do that!
