I recently upgraded my 35mm equipment to EOS cameras and lenses,
including an Elan IIe and Elan 7e bodies. I also have a 28-105 II USM,
a 28-200 USM, 75-300 III USM, and a 22-55 USM. The quality in my photos
even in 4 X 6 size is just not there. Since changing to the EOS system,
my photos are not sharp and appear to be of low contrast with all of the
above mentioned lenses. This is happening at all focal lengths,
especially at the wide angle settings. I've taken all these photos at
relatively fast shutter speeds (faster than 1/125 sec) and small
apertures (5.8 or 8 or smaller). I've tried different film (usually ISO
200 or 100) and processing to no avail.
I am beginning to think that acceptable quality is just not possible
with AF lenses. The photos from my canon Megazoom 76 are actually much
sharper! Any comments or ideas as to what is happening? Thanks!

When I first got my a2e and lenses I had episodes with a series of not
sharp pictures. The problem was something like -I had turned off
autofocus and had forgotten to turn it back on OR I had the eye control
set incorrectly.
If you dont have at least several tack sharp pictures then something has
been set incorrectly (likely on the body rather than on the lens since
you are using several lenses)
Now I am careful and I am very happy with most of my pictures - the
settings are set incorrect only very rarely nowadays.
