I have this lens and it is one of my sharpest. Hanging on my wall is a 11x14
of an echinacea (since you are a biologist). It was taken at about 1/2 life
size at f8 and cuts off some of the petals. In the composite part there are
stamens (or pistils) numbering about a 1000. Some of them have what appear to
little flowerlets. You can actually see tiny pollen clumps on these
flowerlets. No apologies for sharpness here!!
