The one thing that bothers me about PZ's rating is that there is a bias on resolution to give the 1 to 5 stars.



Whilst resolution is important the true value of a lens is what I call the X-factor. For example, the 180mm f/2.8 AFD lens has it. And so does the 50mm f/1.4 AFS.

Photozone is about measurable performance. Take it or leave it.



On the other side, I think the gap between PZ ratings and performance perceived by most people is because PZ value the corner resolution while most photographers value central & 2/3 central resolution.



And at the end of the day, photography skills are much more important than gear.
