It always amuses me when someone posts photos on their site, with the purpose
of demonstrating how sharp a particular lens is.  Regardless of how good the
quality of a scan, no computer monitor can begin to show the difference
between a photo taken with an excellent lens and mediocre lens.  Photos posted
on a site can show many things like composition,  but they tell nothing about
lens sharpness.
