If you look at the test results at slrgear.com and compare the Nikon and Olympus, you will come back with a different conclusion, okay the Nikon is slightly sharper at 2.8.

I would like to see others' comments regarding the statements made when other data does not back this up.

"Not in the same leaque," come on!

FF vs 4/3, no contest but sharpness?


When DxO introduced their new rating system few months ago I already said it was BS.
They arbitrary choose aperture for their best rating. Their ratings don't match what other review sites measure. And they are body-dependent.

A rating system that is body dependent makes total sense as the MTFs a lens produces is very much dependent on the sensor size, megapixel count and pixel density. Read any Lenstip review to see how MTFs go up or down depending on what body they use as a test camera. DxOMark factors this reality into their tests.


actually both rating systems make a lot of sense.

Testing a set of lenses on the same body gives you a good comparison under equal circumstances.

Testing depending on the body will help you to find out if your lenses still perform well on a 40MP body. And in case of sw corrected lenses, you might be able to choose the body that best supports your lens(es).
