It's not the lack of capabilities of the equipment 9 times out of 10, it's the photographer. Either the 'set-up' is wrong, or simply one element of the shot isn't covered in a setting within the camera, (or lens/flash/whatever) that in turn ruins what the preconceived idea, (or mental photo) the photographer has in his/her mind and doesn't 'come out right' onto print/screen thus causing undue frustration. Notice your practice technique and stop blaming the equipment.

I'm one for expecting results in this digital age but with serious glass like this (and others), one must earn it. The brand makes little difference however your subject/technique/set-up does! (I to this day continue to use my older Nikon D1X and F2AS w/ manual primes from time to time just to keep it real). Try this: Go find a Pentax K1000 and do it yourself! You'll find where the flaws are quickly!

In lesser words; the "equipment", (including this lens) can only do what it's told to do within the parameters given/operated by you. Need more light? Meter twice + Open it up! Not enough DOF? Close it down and shoot with a flash/fill light + Bracket! Camera shake? Use a bi/tripod, hold your camera/breath and block the wind or simply wait for the moment to arrive! Work within the parameters of the equipment and do what it takes to make your shot!

IMHO modern photographic equipment does almost too much for us these days, (and we expect automatic instant perfection) whereas if you follow the rules and obey the laws of physics you'll practice consistency and have nothing but praise about all of your work & tools. You'll know what works & what doesn't and not waste time/effort but yet have the results you want + gain experience & proficiency.

It's time to get back to basics people. Study "the Greats", (like Ansel Adams) then learn from their mistakes & techniques and add your own personal touch to the photographic universe. This is a modern wonder of a lens, so learn how to use it and just have fun.
