Thanks Jim.
I asked because my initial impression felt even the 100 and 200 had a 
"mushy" feel.
When I consider a backup (or replacement) to the DMR
I'm looking for fine detail; which I don't see in these test shots.
Could be due to flat lighting, lack of mirror lockup, or other camera 
movements;
or a combination of above.

Or the sensor/processor hardware.

I'd love to see a test with full dynamic range,
camera locked down on solid tripod,
mirror locked up,
no depth of field issues,
at f:8, 1/250

I'm not asking you to do it.
Just really curious about what the sensor can actually deliver. 

Regards,
George
