Yes, I recall those comments... His close-up 35mm Distagon portrait of a man has this dark edge on the edge of his chin. When I look directly at that line, I find it actually detracts from the 3D look, but I have been mulling it over for quite some time now, and it is quite possible that Richard is right that a lens which renders that way enhances 3D, even if that one line doesn\'t do it for me. I wonder how the characteristic which causes that line to appear affects the rest of the image?
I wish I had a Canon 5D2 and a 100 Planar, so I could do some tests. Now, some people who know me well might be falling off their chairs at hearing me make such a statement, since I generally detest Canons, and their rendering, but for the purposes of testing where 3D comes from, it would be very handy to have this combo.
