The 560/6.8 Telyt is an amazing lens. I didn't think your earlier photo of the beach was that bad but I think any telephoto, especially a 2 element telescope design will be affected by shooting through glass. And as Doug mentioned, heat waves will give a distorted effect at such a long distance. To me the lens works nicely on your Mk III. Enjoy.
