Hi Tom,
I too have the EF28-135 and a 5D. Before going to the Alps last summer I
ran some holiday snap type checks with my 28-135 and the new 5D. Although
I've used it abroad in the past with film cameras and successfully, I left
it at home this time as I noticed patches of poor definition when printed to
A3. Instead I took my EF 28-80 f3.5-5.6 USM (Original version) and that was
fine.
So I'm not too surprised by your post.
(Other lenses taken were EF 24 f2.8, EF 50 f2.5 and the lightweight EF
80-200 f4.5-5.6. All performed OK when required. Pleased that I travelled
light as we got to high altitudes where oxygen depletion had an effect.)

Subject: EOS Blurry pics.
Hello all,
I am currently working on a presentation for work. I've taken some photos
of the piece of equipment that is being introduced with the following:
Eos 5D
28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS
Tripod
Cable release
Manual Focus
Mono light w/ umbrella
Shutter speed was 1/100th
When I brought the pics up on my computer screen I immediately noticed
that they all looked slightly, but noticeable, out of focus. Not on the
camera screen though.
I spent some time today with the camera and lens combo checking my manual
focus against the auto focus on the same point and it was on every time.
I know that my diopter is set right.
I've heard/seen posts that the 28-135 seems "softer" to some with a
digital as apposed to film cameras. This didn't look soft, I would say
out of focus. I haven't been doing digital that long so maybe I'm missing
or not under standing something. I've never had to re-shoot pictures
before now. Later today or tomorrow I'll have to retake them.
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Tom
