Soft lens or poor technique?
Hi all,
First post and all that!
I own a 40D and a Sigma 50-500 DG. I've begun to believe that the lens is too soft for me but I need some help. Is there a way of eliminating "poor technique" from a shoot so that it is possible to be sure that any softness in a final image is down to the lens as opposed to anything else? I've read numerous articles on long lens technique but despite this many of my shots at the long end appear too soft for large crops etc.
Also is it worth getting a body and lens combination correctly calibrated? I don't seem to have issues with other lenses and sharp images (for example my 100mm Canon Macro gives lovely shots).
Any helpful suggestions gratefully received...
DS
