Comparison of DP1M and SD1M with 17-70mm 1:2.8-4 OS DC

After inspecting Larry's images comparing the DP1Q and the SD1M with the 18-35 Art lens, I thought I'd try the same with my (new-ish) 17-70 lens.

Now I wish I hadn't.

Anyway, both cams on tripods, sunlight WB, standard color for DP and landscape color for SD, both f/8, +0.7 EV exposure. Both images processed in SPP 5.5.1, almost neutral settings except exposure:

exposure -0.9

highlight +0.2

sharpness + 0.1

fill light +0.5

I corrected the greenish color cast in the DP; left the color wheel at 0 for the SD.

SD1M

DP1M

Sorry about the tilt. I was on a very steep hillside.

Anyway, I was surprised how bad the 17-70 was at the edges.
