Sharper wide open: Mirrorless or DSLR?
May 10, 2012

For those of you who have a pro DSLR greater than 16 MP and a mirrorless camera, which produces images sharper with fast lenses wide open:

DSLR + best quality 50 mm @ F1.4

or

Mirrorless with best quality 25 mm @ F1.4

Any photographic evidence to back up either (real photos)?

Currently, I have a D800 plus the Sigma 50 1.4. Will your mirrorless out-resolve this combination at F1.4?

Sincerely,
Someone who is looking for a second camera system

Why would one compare 50mm f/1.4 on FF to 25mm f/1.4 on mFT?
