Hi,
I have a brand new 24TSE LII, which I use on a Sony A7rII. I have also tried it on my friends Canon 5DIII. My experience is that my sample is not that great.
When we tried the lens on my friends Canon 5DIII it was a bit behind my friends 16-35/4 at 24 mm. When shifted I feel it is not reasonably sharp. What I also see is that a large part of the issue is lateral chromatic aberration, that corrects well in software.
I have shot a lot on my last three weeks of travel with the TSE 24/3.5 TSE LII, and I was very happy with the results. It works very well for interiors and things like that. What causes havoc is subject with high contrast corner fine detail, like tree tops.
It would be interesting to try out more samples of the 24/3.5 TSE on Canon bodies.
But just to say, in a lot of real world situations it just worked fine. But, it also failed in a lot real world situations. I have mostly used it on Sony A7rII, but also on a Canon 5DIII and I think both cameras were consistent.
I will post some raw samples in the weekend.
Best regards
Erik
I've made a brief search but failed to find any pixel peep testing of the TS-E 24 II used on a 5Ds or 5Ds R. Has anyone done that? I'm a bit curious how it performs. I actually own the lens myself, but I don't have the 5Ds body.
I'm not using the Canon system much, but mostly I use a 49x37mm 50MP CCD and Schneider Digitar 35 on a Linhof Techno which gives about the same field of view, so it would be interesting with a pixel peep shoot-out to see where it currently stands.
