These are pretty crappy but that is not because of the lens, it's me. These are after a pretty brutal 4-5 hour scramble through the ridges and canyons of the Santa Cruz mountains, we were chasing a mountain lion. I think the first pic is maybe the best of the lion but I'm not focussed on the lion. Autofocus was hunting even with single point but that's almost certainly because I have shaky hands (benign tremor) and they are way worse when I'm tired (and I was exhausted, completely so).
All that said, ignore the lion, look at the branches in front of it. I believe this is sharper than the mark I. I need to find time to do a careful comparison, this is not that, but I promised something so here is something.

I'm pretty much a n00b so if you all have some specific things you'd like me to do let me know.
So far my only negative reaction to the lens is that the foot is different from the mark I, the mark I foot is easier to use as a handle when you are walking around. Pretty minor point.
