I understand there is a loss of quality when magnification is concerned, but at the full focal length of 400mm the quality of my images are quite poor. I think the quality is even worse with the optical stabilizer active. I am certian I read somewhere that zoom lenses suffer with quality from either the top or bottom end, so would I be better off with a fixed tele lens? I have seen so many sharp bird shots, but I dunno ~ am I being too fussy?

To make this image remotely sharp I have to push the unsharp mask to 200% and at this level of sharpening noise becomes very visable.
