[QUOTE="eurotrash, post: 134318, member: 9237"] Yep. Shooting test charts will always disappoint IMO. Once you get the technique of shooting a very wide aperture lens down (which requires a different skill set entirely), they go away quickly enough. I've learned that you just need to use the lens within it's intended operating distances. For a fifty millimeter, you wouldn't try doing macro, for instance. You'll get severe focus shift that way. Or vice versa. Nowadays, I'll shoot charts just to ensure that the lens isn't out of spec to a problematic state. [/QUOTE]
