It's fairly sharp, but not terribly sharp. If I had thought more about it I would have adjusted the shutter speed accordingly, but I was being stupid and had it on 1/400 when the camera supports 1/6000. Having a $700 lens that is sharpest around f/11-f/13 helps as well.
Everyone here loves headphone pictures, right? I've got them too.
