I always use AF-C with BBF for everything.
I see no reason to redo the tests. They show the two lenses are essentially the same. If you shoot Nikon buy the Nikon. If you shoot Sony buy the Sony. If you shoot both, you like to spend money, so buy both.
Every "pro" review glows, and apparently every user sample on FM sucks. You can't have it both ways. I thought my real world samples were soft...but when up against Sony they magically win?
I hope more people do some tests to get some idea of what the "baseline" performance of this lens is wide open.
Not sure how you got this from my reply? I said your test is fine. And I really don’t care about the Sony vs Nikon thing. That was your choice to compare. I only care how Nikon lenses perform as I only own Nikon bodies. That is not a knock on Sony, it is just how it is.
The pics on the tripod are well shot. They tell the story of the lens. Interpret them however you want. If you don’t like the lens then just return it. I saw nothing in the tripod shots that would make me not own this lens.
