You would have to shoot slide film to compare color,
print film can be printed any tint you can imagine and
the same neg printed by 10 different labs would look
like 10 different pictures. In fact, for most
comparsions a medium speed, normal contrast slide film
would most likely provide more information about the
differences between these two lenses than other
methods. John Robison
