These are good for sure, Andrew. However, I got concerned when seeing
some examples on a web site (forgot the URL now) that someone else
recommended. In those, there was clear softness at f4, improving
greatly at f8, but f8 is not an aperture I use very often. Could also
be sample variation, of course.
