These are closer than I\'d expect. (I wonder is plasticity is subject to sample variation? - he says trying to literally hedge his bets )
-but I\'d bet good money that the second one is the Planar. It has better \"wrap\" on the edges of the front bowl, and expecially the bottom-left of the kitty thing.
Also, the bokeh on the rt side (in the yard) is a little bit edgier in pic #1. Yup, that\'s the makro.
----------------
Note also that none of my earlier tests were with subjects this close, as I rarely shoot so close with a 50mm. Not hedging my bets here, just wondering if a close-subject minimizes the differences?
Well, the gauntlet has been thrown! I must respond soon. Just got off a 17 hr work day, dealing with crazed rock musicians, so not tonight. My brain is jello. (he says truthfully, but once again looking for an excuse in case he guessed wrong. )
I\'ll try tomorrow. I have a REALLY good test subject planned.
