Optimum Apeture setting

It depends upon what you mean by optimum, but I suspect you mean highest resolution? Probably f8 - f11 or thereabouts. But I would expect this to be a very high quality optic where the standard is pretty even throughout the range.
For portraits the optimum aperture might be f2.8 - f4 to blur the background.
For landscapes maybe f16 to maximise DOF. The smallest aperture is usually best avoided, but the option is there where the absolute maximum DOF is required.
