Re: 12-35 2.8 vs 14-140 II - how much better?

Maybe I had a bad copy of the 14-140 II but it was significantly worse than the 12-35 I owned. The center throughout the range never got truly sharp and the corners were mush. Plus the build and materials quality was disappointing for a lens retailing at $700 (I had the new matte black version - it felt like just a larger version of the matte black 14-42 II).
