Thank you all for your answers, thanks for re-posting the test. >From what I've saw the 40 w/o seems quite soft in the extreme corners, the 70 is much better but since the images are too small I can't say for sure (well, for portraits it doesn't matter much). So I'll bother you again: if you have the full-res images could you please take a look and post your impression about sharpness in the edges/corners? The light falloff don't look that bad. -- Best regards, Alex Sarbu -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
