I'm looking to spend a weekend (and a lot of money on film) to do some
pretty extensive field testing of the lenses I currently own, as well as
some I'll be renting to help determine which telephoto (200+, zoom or not)
I should buy. I've read the actual report numbers using USAF test targets
and such on most of these lenses, but I'm finding a general lack of
real-world examples. so rather than whine about it I'm going to do it
myself.
I was wondering what those on this list do to "test" a lens when they get
it? do you setup a test board of some kind and shoot at varying apertures
and shutter speeds? do you just go out and shoot what you normally do and
try to compare quality? and when you actually compare quality, is it on a
light table (assuming you shoot slides), scans, or enlargements?
and aside from documenting EVERYTHING, is there anything else I should
keep note of? (I'm going to try and do this all in the same two hour
period, so lighting won't change much.)
TIA
