Can anyone provide some sample imsages which:

  1. show off corner to corner sharpness; and
  2. resolution?

In particular I want to see how it fares about Nexs and Fuji

Thanks

is look at the DPR test charts and photo's.

They will tell you more than any photo's posted here.

Then use the DPR Compare-O-meter.

Put a u 4/3 camera in one box, a NEX in another and a Fuji in a third.

Then compare until your hear is content at any and all ISO's.

This.

I used to have a problem with m43: looking at the comparometer samples, I concluded that the sensor has excellent ability to capture dense, "meaty" colors, that it is excellent at low ISO and has very conservative approach to noise in RAW, -> doesn't do anything about it at all, which is great.

However, the real images people posted were unsharp, poorly exposed, motion blurred snapshots. I took a risk and decided that people just didn't use the camera properly and therefore didn't obtain optimal results; m43 was simply not a choice format for skilled people who know something about photographic technique; I bought a discounted older model, and it proved to be great. So, the lesson is: the high end equipment usually has better samples online because this market segment is usually bought by people who know what they're doing, and that introduces bias.

when saying something like this would get you banned!
