At macro resolution (1:2)
Olympus 90mm f2                         Tokina 90mm f2.5
        l/mm /(contrast% 30 l/mm)       l/mm(contrast)
f       center  corner          f       center  corner
2       40/(30) 36/(25)
2.8     45/(47) 36/(30)         2.5     64/(55) 57/(49)
4       45/(69) 36/(43)         4       72/(67) 64/(54)
5.6     45/(68) 40/(45)         5.6     81/(68) 72/(59)
8       51/(60) 40/(50)         8       81/(62) 72/(60)
11      45/(54) 40/(42)         11      64/(62) 57/(55)
16      40/(48) 36/(40)         16      51/(52) 40/(52)
22      40/(33) 36/(27)         22      45/(45) 32/(42)
32      -       -               32      36/(31) 29/(24)

At 1:4, the Tokina resolution numbers increase even more relative to the
Olympus.

Now I have the Tokina 90mm f.25, and I was wondering if someone had both,
and can really compare if these numbers are anywhere close?

Also, a question I've been dying to ask, how do you calculate lines per mm??
I mean, take a microscope to the film??
