I think Jack is right. We have seen some VERY sharp shots on this site. The 2.8 is pretty fuzzy and the f/4 soft.Jack, you really can't tell ANYTHING from 72 ppi jpegs - the Raws look great. I think the lens is probably diffraction limited by f8. And these were "an informal couple"! (with no processing.)
I'll do something more controlled soon and make the Raws available.

I am wondering if it isn't just motion blur, or the edge went OOF. AT 2.8 you are going to have a VERY small DOF.
I would caution any conclusions about the lens from the edge under those situations.
Maybe show the center crop? I find it difficult to focus at the edge in shots like this, so I usually do a focus bracketing. Alternative is to look 100% and pick somewhere on the ground, in the plane of the center.
If not, I would have the lens checked.
