Hi Marcus, I wouldn't call it "very soft" wide open. I've certainly seen worse, from Pentax included.
I have an 8x10 portrait on my wall taken wide open at 1/60 second. Although one can't count every pore or blemish, it doesn't look "soft" and both the subject and I and others that view the photo are pleased with the image. William in Utah.
