With all of these the only adjustment from default Lightroom import will be white balance normalization. If anyone wants the original DNG files because they have an undying love for brick walls, just ask. These images are sitting in an application on my server and will probably load a little slowly. I need to change how I serve up big files but in the interest of expediency, here they are...
Until specified otherwise, focus is on the large block grey bricks; the crops include the entire right hand side of the frame. I adjusted my position to provide roughly the same area of view. Not sure if I\'ll be able to do that with a 50mm and 75mm though... poor location planning on my part!
First up, GXR Mount A12 hosting the Zeiss ZM 25/2.8 Biogon, click the image for 100% crop (~4mb file).
Next, ZM 35/2 Biogon (~6mb file):
I think I may have posted this one before a couple weeks ago - NEX-5N showing 100% edge crops at wide open and f/5.6 onliy for ZM25, ZM35, and a 30 year old Yashica ML 50/2 SLR lens... I\'ll replace this with a series like those above when I have a moment.
Wide open the the ZM25 performs much better on the GXR. Stopped down some, the differences largely disappear or at least you need to go hunting for them. I think at infinity the differences in resolving ability show up more at all aperture openings. There appears to be some colour cast on the NEX-5N/ZM25 images - the full files make this more obvious.

I can\'t say there are huge differences here between the NEX and GXR although on the full files it becomes the NEX shows an obvious colour cast wider open. clear there is a colour cast on the NEX files that isn\'t found on the GXR images.
