????????????

You responded to the wrong post - though I don't think much of Photodo either...

You are looking for a simple answer to a complex question. Test charts tell you

very little about the real performance of a lens for MANY reasons - which is

why I use "real" subjects and my own set of standards for comparing lenses

in the site above. This correlates better with what I'm looking for in the

image-quality of lenses I use - things a test chart will not tell me very reliably...
