Hi Aram,
Thanks Howard. What focal length was used?
*70mm - sorry should have stated that.
On casual observation, they both look very similar. Up close (1:1) there is
a real difference when looking at the bark on the two trees in the
foreground. 80 is considerably sharper than 81. Same on the trees on the
sides of the frame. This does not show up on the treeline in the distance.
Since you used liveview for focus, presumably on the same point, I can rule
out focus difference.
so, when are you going to tell us which shot was with which lens?
* After a few more viewers I will reveal.
Do I finally scrap my 35-70/4 and get the Nikon beast?
* Hmmm - perhaps only if you want AF.
Aram
