Well Philippe, I won\'t insist on the claim as I don\'t have the Planar and I only have sample images to go on - and there are a lot of uncontrolled variables there (shooting style, resizing etc). So these are only my impressions. You should be in a better position to judge it - the 50 MP has a very similar style (stopped down) to the 100 MP. Of the lenses that I own, I\'d say that the 100 & 50 MP have the best resolution, and the 21 Distagon the best sharpness. My 35/2 falls behind in both respects. It\'s still obviously very sharp, but the sharpness is never as expressive as it is with the others.
My impressions from 50 Planar samples is that it\'s rich in micro contrast but weaker in resolution (my definition of sharpness is resolution + micro contrast), but again, that\'s just my impression. Supporting that are the impression are the opinions of Adam & Wayne who own both the Planar and the MP. Samuli has both as well, but I\'m not sure what his current opinion is now that he has had the MP for a while.
