I didn't say it didn't work, I don't understand WHY closer is better because that increases the incidence angle deviation from perpendicular, which is bad, severely on the edges/corners of the sensor.
I can understand why the lens itself is better, it just seems that the lens/sensor interface is much worse when the rear element is so severely close to the sensor. Maybe this sensor is specially designed for this lens and isnt "flat"? jco -----Original Message----- From: Sylwester Pietrzyk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 09, 2005 11:31 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: First non DSLR digicam with 10MP APS sensor- contradiction J.

Actually samples on www.fotopolis.pl has shown, that R1 performs much better than "digital optimised" E-300 ;-) -- Balance is the ultimate good... Best Regards Sylwek
