Well, there are many reviews of this lens out there, and with pretty mixed conclusions. Especially in the corner performance. The center performance is usually always good. And for many lenses. It would be interesting to see the same picture taken with different lenses. I noticed that you have few Sigma zooms, just it's not clear for which camera.

If there are negative comments about edge/corner performance I would double check to confirm that they are using it on an APSC camera and not FF. Many people do use this lens on the K-1i/ii especially after removing the baffle.

Doug, look here for example:

https://www.ephotozine.com/article/pentax-da--60-250mm-f-4-ed--if--sdm-lens-review-25682

And it was reviewed on K-5/IIs

That's quite a good performance so I'm not seeing the "mixed" part ;).
