I do agree with regard to the comparison with the 4x5", yet the fact that
the lens is not the best available gives even more emphasis to the visible
difference between scans at various dpi. After all, had these tests been
made with a 3.000$ Leica lens, a lot of people would be left wondering
whether the results would apply also to their lenses.
