Macro

All shots were supported handheld and all the screw shots were all at ISO 400. My conclusion is that while the lens is very sharp from f / 2.8 to f / 22, but the contrast begins to degrade at f/16, and both contrast and sharpness at f / 32 take a strong dive.

Bottom center crops were not included at f-ratio below f/16 since the screw was outside the DOF.
