Wondering if TKfoto is consistent in selling a sharp copy of this siggy?!
daredevil123 said:There is no ultimate sharp copy. Copy is sharp or not depends a lot on your camera body as well. And not just the same model, but that specific camera body you hold in your hand. So you need to test the lens prior to paying to make sure that specific copy of the lens focuses ok on your camera body. The same applies for Nikon or Canon lenses or lenses from other brands.
And there is no guarantee that when you get a new body, the lens you own will be just as sharp on that new body.

The first photo looks soft to me.
The 2nd photo looks alittle front focus and soft. Just sent to the service centre, they are now mending with it.
The guy told me that it was the focus ring which was too stiff thus he will either change or enhance the ring so that the image will be sharper and more consistent
Both taken without editing done
NewbietoPro said:Oh hi cowseye, I am focusing on the lace. Only the top lace.
I have quite a number of missed shots at f1.4 actually, thus I brought to the service centre to check then they say it was the focus ring so I am now waiting for them to get it done. Hopefully within 2-3 days
just got myself 1 from a fellow cser today loving it
YUP!!
Just got the lens back today.
Shots taken wide open.
Miss shots are lesser now.
