[QUOTE="eurotrash, post: 206802, member: 9237"] At 1.4, your dof will be absolutely on a razor's edge. It's no surprise this is happening. It happens with my 50mm 1.4, it happened with my buddies 85 1.4, and 35 f1.4 as well. That is kind of the nature of very wide apertures. Also softness is common and can be perceived as the lens being out of focus as well. The areas that are supposed to be sharp become a bit blurry, leading your eye to search even harder for the 'sharp' portions. Also, test charts aren't really the best thing to judge if you have focus issues. Go shoot some real world objects and see if it happens. IMHO, test charts are a waste of patience, something ALWAYS looks out of place somehow. Do your dof tests display this behaviour when shooting with other lenses, perhaps slower lenses? [/QUOTE]
