I did a side-by-side comparison of some photos of vintage, AV and Jap bodies...I
don't see
a difference. Bear in mind, photos can distort things depending on the lens
used. A wide-
angle lens would tend to distort the image and make it rounder and more
pregnant, while
a telephoto would make it look somewhat sleeker. I could be wrong, but wanted to
point
out the effect of photography, since I am a photographer.
Are we gear-geeks or what?
