Re: Some help with my new 10-18mm IS STM please?

Can i ask if you are comparing this lens to your other lens, shooting the exact same thing, or just expecting to see more sharpness?

Those images look quite low in contrast and id expect that, coupled with a lower end crop sensor wont have the sharpness a shot in good light with a better sensor will give at 100% viewing.

Also as stated f/11 will not be giving you the sharpest image quality.

Also if you are comparing your straight out of camera shots with posted shots you need to be aware that a lot of people will process their shots before posting, and this can make a huge difference in the final image quality.

I love mine and its one of the sharpen EF-S lenses ive owned on my 80D, but of course at this price point there can be more sample variation.
