New 400mm f5.6 lens

Yet to get a sharp shot out of this lens - think I might have bought a 'Lemon'. This is the nearest I have came to a half decent shot but it still looks mighty soft to me. what do you think and how is the best way to test the lens to see if it is duff.

What shutter speed and aperture are you using?

Roy have you taken any with a tripod, that should rule out any camera shake.

As this shot shows 2 highlights in the eye I think there is a bit of shake. I always use a tripod these days.

It does look a little soft on the left and right of the roof apex but the brick don't look to bad the chimney may have a little shake. It is very hard to tell.

I have just blown it up to 300%, there does seem to be very slight shake or it could be the halo's from shapening.

This a 400 x 400 crop from frame. Only adjustment is to reduce the brightness a bit. 1/500 sec f8 ISO400 Canon 300mm IS f4 tripod. Your lens should give as good if not a tad better than this. |

Perhaps I am expecting to much from the lens. How do people hand hold this lens and get great flight shots? |
