Aperture was f/7 and I don't think DOF was wide enough for those corners. CA is visible, right - and I could show some pictures of a Nikon 24-85 (the "kit-lens" for D600) which are at the same aperture and focal length worse with a very nervous bokeh. I see the lens is not a superduper one, but my alternatives on Nikon aren't superduper, either.

 

Except I carry on, say, 5 fast primes and don't mind changing lens... Anyway, thanks for sharing the link. To me the overall impression remains good enough. I don't think it's fair top expect at this cost level a performance of primes. But that's just me.

 

Hi JoJu,

 

Aperture was f11 according to EXIF.

Of course i don't expect tack sharp corners on a zoom lens, but since i know that i will use a zoom lens in the wide angle area mostly, i am a bit sensitive regarding corner IQ
