Canon TS-E 90mm f/2.8L MACRO Review
Sharpness at 90mm
For this review, the sharpness test is carried out by photographing a real-world sample, rather than a test chart. The Canon TS-E 90mm f/2.8 L Macro Lens was mounted on a Canon EOS 6D Mark II, which was in-turn mounted on a sturdy tripod. Exposure delay was activated to prevent camera-shake. Any changes in tone you might see across the crops are due to natural light changes during the shooting session.
The full frame at 90mm
The Canon TS-E 90mm f/2.8 L Macro lens is very sharp at the centre at f/2.8, being even sharper still between f/4.0 and f/8. At f/11, sharpness drops a little again to still be very good. Sharpness drops a little again at f/16, and f/22, while at f/32 and f/45 centre sharpness is more noticeably soft, especially at 100%. Sharpness at the edge of the frame is at its best between f/8 and f/16. It is still good at f/22 and f/32 but it is more noticeably softer.
