Here are a few I like. Under real scrutiny, I'm sure if I took these with the 600TC I'd like the sharpness better, but I've been happy with the results from this lens. Still, I haven't used it extensively.
Note, I do want to mention that I did have to add a bit more sharpening and texture to these than I typically do with my primes. However, you can pull out the sharpness IMO. I think that's part of the tradeoff for using the less expensive optic. All that said, I still think the OP's shots aren't right - the lens should do better than what he's getting.
Note #2 - also, in looking at this images in the shadow box at the site and comparing them to the ones on my computer, they look ever so slightly sharper on my computer for some reason. No idea why...
