[QUOTE="gustafson, post: 561942, member: 40735"] Agreed! Optics aside, in the case of this lens, I feel the increased DOF at smaller apertures makes it more forgiving to faults in handheld technique. One other observation worth noting is that diffraction seems to set in somewhat early on this lens (f/11) and robs sharpness, so f/4-f/8 is a safe window to work handheld. I'm setting mine to f/5.6 for general use, and will use wider apertures with extra attention to keeping the camera and body steady. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
