What I'm saying is that even resolution IS important for landscapes...it became common mantra here in the forums to make excuses for weaker performance just like you did - that resolution isn't everything. Of course what counts in first place is the imagination, light, composition etc. But given the properties of equipment: colour can be partially improved, aberations tweaked but if the detail is missing - there's nothin you can do about it. I don't know much about DA21 resolution, that's why I asked Frogfish about his opinion here. Not to mock DA21, just wanted to know his experience with da21 and voigtlander20 ...because i was considering those year ago....

IMO that is subjective and dow to personal preferences/opinions.Quote:
if only that Voigtlander wasn't so expensive.....btw. is it really sharper than da21?

I've found the 18-55mm kit at F8 OK, 16-45mm OK, DA 35mm F2.4 OK so I'm sure the 21mm Ltd will be OK.
As long as I can print at 15"x10" I'll be happy.
I think too many photographers now take photos just to see how their equipment performs.
