Diffraction starts to play a part at the narrower f/16 and f/22 apertures, reducing overall Tamron SP 24-70mm F2.8 Di VC USD Nikon on Nikon D500 vs Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 17-55mm f/2.8G IF-ED on Nikon D500 vs Sigma 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM A Nikon on Nikon D500 Center resolution map of the 24-120mm f/3.5-5.6 on a D3x.
