Very interesting experiment Len.
Is it me or is there a gap in the reasoning here?

This I cannot understand.

Other: from what I get, you used the same lens on both cameras. May I 
suggest that one of them is not the perfect match for the lens? Hence 
maybe the result you get?
I think some lenses have been produced for the 35mm format, others for 
APS, others yet for 4/3, etc.  With this in mind, and seeing that there 
are some incompatibilities (Canon's S? on 5D for instance, unsure about 
this types)  can we draw general conclusions from your findings?

Thanks for sharing Len, I'm not a "technie", but I'm willing to learn :-D
