Tom -  This afternoon I took the 5D and the 16-33 to the supermarket 
and photographed the shelves at 16.  There is a slight fall-off of 
focus at the edges and slight vignetting but only right at the 
edges.  I haven't examined closely any shots with the 24 or the 
19.  They look great at first glance.  I'll try both of them tonight 
and examine them at 100%.  I would expect them to be better than the 
Canon based on what I've seen with the 1DMII, but it's not full-frame 
so I'll check them out on the 5D tonight.
