I'll have to run the lens through some tests to check it, but I did pick it up for a song so expectations aren't that high. JayTÂ

But then I realized that something was bothering my eyes. At first I thought that the photo was oversharpened. But when I looked closely, I realized that the tree flowers are not sharp. Actually, I am having hard time finding where the focus is. Either it is back-focused, or you have a motion blur... (or something is out of whack with the lens). There is also a possibility that it is overcompressed with JPEG processing.
