Quote:So according to Klaus it looks like this zoom at it's best "easily exceeds the potential of the 36MP sensor"DXO is what is going on. For fun, take a look at the Canon EF 17-40mm f4 L USM and Canon EF 16-35mm f2.8 L USM II "tests" from DXO. Prepare to get confused even more!
And so it looks on the charts.
But according to DXO it provides, at it's best, 16 PMP - perceptual megapixels, their own made up measure. Which they take to be very good for a lens like this.
Now maybe 16PMP is the most you can hope for on a 36 real mp sensor: except that the Zony 55 1.8 peaks at what looks like a massively higher 28 (I think) PMP. So it seems like there's a lot more potential on the 36MP sensor.
So what's going on? I'm confused....
