I have taken on board the comments and I have now uploaded a new set of photos using all three lenses and at comparable focal lengths. They are all at ISO100. They are all JPGs **** quality and uploaded full size (thank you BT Infinity). Pixel peepers can download the full size images.

The images were all taken today using a tripod and mirror lock up. One thing I found is that it is surprisingly difficult to set a zoom to a specific intermediate focal length, the markings on the focus ring are a rather rough and ready guide so there are some approximations.

The DA17-70 at 70cms looks well OOF !? Any reason for that ?

He's already using 'Manual Focus' !!

In which case it's just down to eye sight !?

you charged it properly, right?

so that means fully charging, fully discharging, and repeating that for *at least* the first three charges?

Never heard of that before for 'Li-ion' batteries :

Lithium-ion is a very clean system and does not need priming as nickel-based batteries do. The 1st charge is no different to the 5th or the 50th charge.

I bought one to take with me to Spain along with the 55-300mm. Bit annoying having (what I thought were) better lenses but Ryanairs hand luggage weight restrictions are mean to say the least.

That's exactly what I'll be doing soon ! Same lenses, same place, same airline 10kg isn't it ?

Was there a problem then ? Were you not able to take them ??

I still say embedded profile problem ! As the man says : (both colour managed) !!

Try loading it in LR or PS and saving with a different colour profile

That's a lot of work ! and for what ?? You obviously don't submit to stock as 1.4MP is too small, so what do you do with them ?
