Not bad for hand held shots Kenspo. So it's clear we're scrutinizing each pic to the highest degree to assess the performance of these lenses (No pressure) I know the weather has not been good, try some shots with a tripod (not monopod) preferably on a gimbal head attachment (if you can manage) to minimize movement and really dial those shots in.

I appreciate you effort so far, much obliged...
