A 450D vs 40D vs 5D test.

All images shot with a EF 100mm Macro at f/8, tripod, mirror lockup using self-timer.
I tried to adjust the distance to compensate for the different pixel density, but this was not 100% correct.

A 450D vs 40D vs 5D test with 85mm and 135mm and corrected ISO/apertures.

After a suggestion to the above test, I did the test again to compensate for the different FOV, the ISO and the aperture. All shots using tripod, mirror lockup, AV.

Note: The 40D was set to Tungsten white balance but corrected to Auto in DPP. The 5D image was adjusted in DPP to get similar exposure to the other two (+2/3). The RAW files are packed to ZIP compression because the browser tends to try to open the CR2 files.
