Re: Ultrawide mega-test: Nikon vs Canon vs Sigma

You should try and keep the same exposure in those pictures. The Nikon is clearly more bright. Underexposure has a lot of influence in the detail aspect. Also I don't know how you got to the conclusion that the 5d mak ii has 160 ISO "native". Just shoot at the same ISO if you want a clear comparison. Also the same number of megapixels would be normal. If you want to test lens, best method would be to fit all the lens to the same camera using an adapter. Maybe you can find a Nikon to Canon adapter and shoot only with the 5d. Then you have a comparison of the lens, not the system.

And as somebody said the Canon 16-35 f2.8 is clearly different from all your lens. Is designed to be fast and maybe this loses some resolution. But I would not carry the 14-24 at an event because it is huge. Also the Nikon 16-35 is just f4...
