Still no samples

Hi !

Thanks for your reply. I did not specify any distance since I would love to see the results at different distances to make up my mind. If  I had to choose but one distance, let's say in the 10-15 metres range. But again, any link / photos at any distance are welcome.

Thanks you.

No samples for you, but in a 15 meter scenario, I would think the 200mm will have a slight advantage over 135mm due to background compression. I know, seeing is believing...

I looked through some old stuff yesterday out of curiosity, and I don't have much of anything shot wide open with either lens. And I wouldn't have two shots taken with the same camera body of the same subject shot at the same distance with two different lenses wide open. I don't do a lot of comparative lens testing, and that would only be something I would do if I were testing.
