No noticeable degradation? Please read my review and view the attached images.

Are sports/action subjects a good way to compare lenses for sharpness ?

If you want to shoot sharp sports photos then yes, they are the best way to compare lenses for sharpness.

That makes no sense. Your action shots are subject to motion blur, focus accuracy and depth of focus.

And that is why I posted the images that were sharpest, and there's clearly no motion blur in the photos I posted

There seems to be motion blur in the first image - look at at the Nike logo on player #30.

And where did you place the focus on that first shot. #30 the ball carrier seems soft compared to #19

Action subjects make poor targets for sharpness testing, and comparison images are almost impossible to obtain.

If you want to examine lens sharpness you should eliminate focus error, subject and camera motion blur and shutter shock from your test images and shoot exactly the same subject under the same lighting and exposure.
