Hi Peter, All, Have you guys examined ultra wide angle 1Ds files on a computer? I personally thought the edges were soft with more corner fall-off compared to a film body with the same lens mounted. These were images shot using an EF 14 2.8L and EF 17-35 2.8L. Of course the 14 does show some fall-off normally on film and the 17-35 2.8L is not the sharpest lens at the edges and corners but still, it seemed that the film images were much better in these areas. I no longer have access to the drum scanned trannies and original 1Ds files but this is what I thought at the time I saw them. Once a little processing was performed the outer parts of the images looked OK but the images clearly were off before processing and it was easy to get too crispy in the central portion of the image before the edges looked their best. Just wondering what you guys had seen.
