Between lenses I used I could see differences in contrast,
color saturation, etc -- but not resolution. At least, not at the center
at reasonable apertures. If Sigma cannot pull that out,
it's gotta be made out of a coke bottle.
Perhaps not a coke bottle...but, then, who knows?
BTW, having done one quick and simple test, there are also rather marked
differences in the features you mention: contrast and colour saturation.
The Sigma has more of both. (Not that this is an issue because a small
tweak in Rawshooter fixes things quickly.)
Thanks for the response.
A person can pixel-peek and lpmm-count to his heart's content. But
you'll never convince me that I'm not getting better photos out of my
FA50/1.4 than my FA28-105/3.2-4.5. Both good lenses in their
classifications, but if I'll bet that if I took the same picture, at the
same aperture and focal length with each lens, I could tell you which
one was taken with the 50mm/1.4.
