I have this macro lens. I use this for landscape photography too. Recently I started observing the sharpness in edges during projection. I found that sharpness reduction in the edges is apparently, on some cases it is too obvious. I was not comparing the test charts and they were mostly landscape shots.
I do not know whether this is the rightway to see the sharpness in edges. I have never printed my slides so do not how it is going to come on print. I do not how bad is this compared to other makes and other pentax lenses beacuse I have not used any other photo system. I would like to hear others experience about this.
