After reading all the reviews and specs I thought I was going to get a nice lens, this APO 70-200mm F2.8 II EX DG Macro HSM, and it was for my new K7... however, maybe I still have a lot to learn about setting up this outfit, but to me, with not a great deal of experience to call upon, I think I have a serious problem. First of all, I do not know if this is how an image should look from this lens, you can see it here,

I have my suspicions about this lens, because my 15yr. old Sigma 75-300 f4.5 seems twice as sharp?? - I have been shooting with the default settings. Q1. Have you seen this before and could it be 'tweeked' out? 2. If not, would this be a manufacturing problem? Q3. Can anyone send me a nice sharp image showing how this should look?? - Ahhhh! - glory without pain is no glory at all!! - I will be sooo happy to resolve this problem one day!
