Hi, I set up a quick test to check out the corner differences between the NEX-5 and NEX-5N with my new CV 15/4.5. There is unfortunately a small framing difference in these, but exposure was the same (slightly regulated in LR3) with lenses set to infinity at f5.6. Cameras were mounted on my tripod with 2 second release timer and processed in LR3 with import presets. Of course, environmental things like wind could always be a factor, so, like any comparison, take these with a grain of salt, and perform your own tests to be sure. That being said, I do think that it is a pretty accurate portrayal of how the two camera bodies handle in the corners.

Now, here are shots through a tissue at f5.6, similar to how one makes a CornerFix profile, to show color shift difference:

NEX-5N CV 15 at infinity f5.6:
The difference seems pretty striking to me in both color shift and resolution. What do you think?
