Only problem is, the m4/3 7-14 cannot possibly be as sharp in the
corners, because of all the software correction necessary to make the
(near-fisheye) projected image rectilinear. The ZD 7-14 seems *pixel
sharp* right into the corners (which is totally unbelievable in my
experience) and which is simply not possible for the software-stretched
pixels.

It'll come close though, I am sure :-) But yes, I am loving the 7-14...
like you said before. I am *not* loving the deep DOF for normal to tele
lenses, but I have to admit, it's great for ultra-wide angle.

I'd love to see some of your m4/3 work with the 7-14 - where can I go
look?
