They seem to have been made at different focal lengths and focus distances. It probably is a misaligned lens, but comparisons between one lens and another need to be made as close as possible to the exact same conditions (focal length, aperture, focus distance, etc.). | |

But that lower right corner just looks exceptionally bad. If it's a recent purchase, send that sucker back and try a different copy / get it warrantied and repaired. | |

| Aug 28, 2019 at 11:54 | comment | added | xiota | Could you post some pictures of a brick wall (or newspaper, as xenoid suggests) taken head on, along with settings (focal length, shutter speed, aperture, ISO)? It would also be helpful to have comparison images from your old lens with the same settings. Use a tripod. | |
| Aug 28, 2019 at 11:45 | comment | added | xenoid | More like the bottom right corner. On the top picture, the antenna mast at top is reasonably sharp, while people under it at the bottom are already blurry. Likely a lens problem. Get a news paper, tape it on a wall, and take pictures to remove all other possible sources if blurriness. If the lens is stabilized, try with stabilization on and off. If problem remains visible send the lenses to service, with the pictures. | |

| Aug 28, 2019 at 10:23 | comment | added | xiota | The left and right sides of the images show objects that are at different distances. Do you have this problem with images that show objects on both sides of the frame that are the same distance away? | |
