I was curious if the Minolta 200mm HS APO stacks up against the Tamron 70-300mm VC SP at 200mm F5.6 and F8, mostly for landscapes at 200mm.
Are the resolution figures comparable across systems if the # of megapixels and format the same?

Look at the resolution BARS instead, not the numbers. Comparing those will get a good enough idea.
However, without looking at them I can already tell that both lenses will be very similar with 200mm stopped down images, resolution wise. 200mm f8 is not really taxing for any lens.
