I will create a few images on Saturday the 14th and put the RAW up so you can have a look. I have the second version, and don't care for either the first version or the 45 for a few reasons, but mainly CA. There is a comparison between the Nikon 85 and Canon 90 on LLoyd Chambers site. The main difference between Nikon versions is the older style has much greater shift movement than both the new model and the Canon. His test were with a D3x and 5D mk II and the Canon 90 clearly had less chromatic aberration with movements (though Nikon cameras auto correct this and he gives examples), less vignetting (mostly because of smaller movements I think), and was overall sharper across the frame at larger apertures than the Nikon (but again less movement and Nikon was very sharp too). I thought of buying the Nikon too for the macro, but the Canon suits me fine with tubes and I have a lot to learn with it yet, though I like the option of putting Nikon lenses on Canon bodies. Check back Saturday and I will give a link to an area where you can download the RAW images with the 24 II, 12mm tube, from a 5D II body.

No need for RAW. JPEG will suffice as I'm only interested in a general impression of what it can do.
Thanks again.
