Hi all,

the attached image was shot at 4.0 with a Bronica PS 40mm at f4.0. No unsharp mask was applied.

The corners are terrible - distorted and blurred.

For those with more experience with this lens, at what aperture should be lens be shot for acceptable corner sharpness?

I'd suggest finding another sample photo to judge sharpness. That photo is not well suited for the task.
