Next OL lens test report: Nikkor Z 50mm f/1.8 S (DX) - mst - 09-07-2021

It's not surprising that on the smaller DX sensor with slightly lower pixel density compared to the Z7 the lens earns our highest rating:

Reviews. So many reviews of late. Smile

Ah! So that was the mysterious 5*!
I didn't think of a FF lens in the APS-C scope ;-)

Yeah, sorry... you were probably hoping for something more exciting Wink

I just realized that I posted nonsense above: the pixel density of the Z50 is actually slightly higher.

And, of course, the cropping has a bigger impact on the corner and border measurements...

Yes, of course. Obviously Wink

Actually I think there was maybe a couple 5* reviews on FF (Sigma 135/1.8 definitely; maybe Nikon 105/1.4 too?); most were of FF lenses tested on APS-C for obvious reasons.
