Cropping after calibration
I have been having a play with my Sigma 70-200mm lens after recalibrating the lens. Distance approx 86 ft thru window camera at 200mm. Hand held with just a very little sharpening
Taken straight from camera just resized.
Cropped and edited
Didn't come out too bad, far better than before the calibration anyway.

Tight crops will almost always look pixelated Bazza. Try getting closer to your subject - build a photography den - I'd bet you get loads of neat shots round there if you did

The object of the exercise was to see how much difference calibration made, and how far I could crop without getting too much distortion. Had I not calibrated the lens there is no way could I have cropped to this extent.
Obviously,as you say, had I wanted to get a better picture then getting closer is the answer, and its a tip everyone should take heed of.
