I found images to be great in the centre but there was a little blurring around the edges. 1dmkII - 5d gripped - 24-70f2.8L 70-200f2.8L 100-400L 17-40L - 28-75di - 580exII - 85 f1.2L - 50e

That behaviour is not normal for this lens. Glenn

Yes, quality will be much better. If in doubt, I shut up...
