The trick, of course is that nobody can really remember colors. I was just
reading about some perceptual tests that
proved that. So in one sense, it's impossible to be sure which is closer to the
now nonexistent original subjects.
My sense is that the Zuiko is further off than the other two.

You saw me doing it. i focused as closely to the same as I could.

Nope, no PP other than trying to match the tops of the histograms, scaling to
match each other and downsampling.

Neither do I, for sure. Focusing at shooting aperture avoids focus shirt, but
makes accurate focus more difficult.
Focusing wide open is easier to nail, but risks focus shift.

Is it tape, or is it memorex? That is, is it lens sharpness, Moose's ability to
focus or DOF? I don't know for sure.

Guess I have to take another look at that.

I remember playing with it. Certainly not for this little comparison. I don't
recall if I shot with it or not. Remember,
we had an outing to Cape Anne Hill to go on, and limited time for techie
foolishness.
