The problem
might be is in my choice of words. I was very impressed how sharp parts of the image were when zoomed in 100%, so much so that you could tell the eye was not "smooth as glass" by the distorted reflection of the photographer. The shot was taken at f4, which is generally considered to a weak point of this lens, yet here is an example where if look close enough, the DA 15 is still sharp at f4 for the in-focus parts of the image. At full resolution depth of field is still an issue in spite of the wide field of view, compared to viewing it at a reduced resolution.
