Whatever the measured resolution numbers and percentage
differences are, one camera's image shows a higher level
of fine detail (disputed by few, from either "side"), and
does it with a lower level of oversharpening (disputed by
few, from either "side"), and the VX2000/PD150 picture
therefore both looks sharper and also has a lower level of
an undesireable picture artifact, a "plus" for the Sony...
