Am I doing something wrong? I know it's not a proper test, but I can't say "wall tests" are suited for wide angle lenses.
- Zeiss Loxia 21mm
- Photo taken at f8.0
- Focus at infinity (a little bit around the stop for maximum sharpness in the center when focus magnifying).
- With those settings, hyperfocal markers say everything should be in focus from 2 meters to infinity at that aperture and that focusing point.

https://files.catbox.moe/sg9umk.jpgPretty sure the extremities shouldn't be this bad. For the extreme corners, yes, no problems about it, and the floor is close to me <2meters anyway. What I'm not sure of is the extreme right and left of the pic. Up until like 15-20% into the photo, they look like shit. I mean, even that tree on the left that's further away looks like shit, not to mention the pyramid trees. Even part of the structure with the windows on the upper right looks like shit, and it's quite far.
Am I retarded and doing something wrong, or did I roll a complete dud? Because it really feels like I rolled a complete dud. No reviews show something this bad at that aperture.
