    Sharpness of EF24-105 vs 100-400II

    Hi all
    My EF24-105f/4L seems to be slightly less sharp at 105mm than my 100-400 f/4.5-5.6L II at 100mm, but gives sharp images around 24-70mm range, so generally I am pleased with it.
    I've set up AFMA on both, seems to be best possible. There are reports that the 24-105 f/4L isn't the sharpest lens around. Can anyone shed any light on this?
    Thanks

    It's not the very sharpest, no. Worst at 24mm at the edges, where there's also a fair bit of distortion. But it's certainly far from terrible, too. 24-70 f4 and f2.8 II are both better, FWIW.
    Please don't ask about my kit, it's embarrassing!
