I’ve added to DAP a second and very different example to yesterday’s Canon EOS 1DsM3 / Nikon D3 sharpness comparison, this one take with the Coastal Optics 60mm f/4 UV-VIS-IR APO macro.

The results were so intriguing that I spent most of the day shooting and analyzing confirmation images with 4 other lenses: the Zeiss ZF 50/1.4 Planar, 50/2 Makro-Planar, Voigtlander 58/1.4 Nokton and Nikon 60/2.8D macro. If you’re wondering about 21 vs 12 megapixels, you’ll want to read this report.
