i have one and use it periodically, mostly at its wide end. it's a reasonably sharp lens, slightly worse than the FA 24-90mm, but is subject to more flare. i almost always shoot at f11 or smaller apertures so i don't know what it does close to wide open. at least to my eyes, corner sharpness isn't too much less than center sharpness. although part of my standard lens kit, it is the one i drop first if i have to save weight or space.
