I'm on board if there is a movement to get together and place an order with Zeiss. Yes please on the Zeiss 21mm f/2.8 ZK Distagon T* Manual Focus Lens for Pentax K-Mount.

Howdy fellow 15mm's! It's been a while since I've posted on here and I've had my 15 for about a year now. It's easily my favorite lens and is on my K-5 99% of the time. With that being said the 15 does come with some heartache (at least my copy). Does anybody else have issues with extreme softness in the corners and even the edges on large landscape shots? I also have issues with a lot of CA, albeit on very high dynamic scenes which I know are an issue with pretty much any lens. I guess my question is is there anything I can do to help mitigate the softness? I used to focus 1/3rd into the scene, but the top corners were really soft, so now I center focus. I typically shot at f/8-f/11...have any other users found another aperture more useful for sharper dof on landscapes? Any info/help would be greatly appreciated! Here's 2 examples...
This image at 100% shows the mountain range in the top left corner is very soft! (Or perhaps I'm expecting too much?)
At 100% the tree's and greenery on the edge's are quite soft! |
