From the interpreting the results section:
We arrived at the multipliers by looking at best-case performance
with the same lens on the different camera platforms. The scaling
factors were set to make this best-case performance roughly the same
between the cameras in question. As this is written in early October,
2005, our test platforms are the Canon EOS-20D and the Nikon D2x,
although we expect to be adding a Canon 5D to our "stable" of test
platforms in the not too distant future, and will hopefully begin
testing with Olympus and Konica Minolta cameras soon as well. This
means that numbers within a BxU unit or so of each other between the
two platforms have to be considered as nearly equivalent. That is,
it's meaningless to say (for instance) that a particular Canon lens
tested on the EOS-20D and showing a best-case BxU value of 1.5 is
"better" than a Nikon lens tested on the D2x body and showing a best-
case BxU value of 1.8. For this reason, we show only graphical
results rather than numeric ones, and actively discourage people from
making quantitative comparisons between lenses based on our data.
