Hey everybody,

A few days ago i bought a new 17-40mm L UW Lens, but I´m very dissapointed about the sharpness.
Is the blurriness at the edge and the corners normal for this lens?

Sorry for the silly question but this is my firs UW, 90% of my pictures were taken with the 70-200 f2.8 and this thing is razorsharp (Yes i know its a Tele).

Orginal Raws, out of the cam!

Thanks!

17-40 f4 on a FF may cause some blurriness on the edges or some vignetting but it works great on a crop camera, here is a gallery that was taken entirely with 17-40:
