Pekka,
Cool! Thanks for the info, but I'd put a 56K warning on there!

I would like to say that's amazing! There are bits where I am not sure what is going on, but I think it is my eyes are play up on me on the fringes of the white and black, very close together.

It is also interesting to note that the white isn't white from the 10D pic. The 1D did a decent job and the 1D MII was incredible!

Is it safe to say that these are all taken with the same lens.

If not i dont see the value of compairing these.

Could the white balance be off on the 10D? :?:

I looked at the 10D first - it does very well, almost resolving to "18" on the scale. The 1D Mk II chart tells me that they are nearing the time when a higher resolution chart will be necessary. :)

Of course, this is all subjective on my part, based on what I see.

Pekka, That comparometer is a cool tool. Thanks for the links.

1D mark II shot is Canon 50/1.8.

Others may be 100mm macro because that is what Dave Etchells told he usually uses. He got Mark II for an hour or so so those are quite quick test setups.

Pekka, I have to think you are going to be responsible for 50% of MkII sales.

Just when I have accepted not getting a MkII till late summer, your research turns up stuff like this.

Now I feel like I must get in line for my future MkII ASAP !!!!
