I test this lens at 180, 300, 400, 500 and 600mm to see if the sharpness levels shift with longer focal lengths and at what point there is a change if any. All the focal lengths are shot at several different apertures to check which one is the sharpest not only for centre image sharpness but also corner sharpness.

We look at distoriton and what level of distortion you can expect form this lens as well as how it performs as regards vignetting and if that is an issue or not.
