OK, I added a third page to the article. The entire vertical portion
of the center of the images are compared side-by-side. I did reprocess
the images to address some issues in the process of converting
Panasonic raw files and also adjusted the contrast to better match the
two images to cover for the way one thinks something is sharper
because it is contrastier.
It does appear that the Zuiko shot is focused slightly closer, but not
by much. Definitely not enough to explain the top portion of the
image. I will admit, though, that in this example we see more issues
with the 24mm lens with the curved plane of focus which does rear its
ugly head at F4.
As I mentioned before, over lunch I did retest with closer subjects. I
can find reasons why these test images can be criticized, but I'm
convinced that the test is repeatable.
