I am certainly curious about using Zeiss lenses on the 1ds3, but I never get definitive answers why someone would go to this trouble. And are these landscape guys using these things, where they want to count the leaf blades from a mile and a half away? I just find that, with proper sharpening, the Canon files are just fine with Canon lenses. And with none of the PITA Factor, in terms of stop down metering, etc. And if someone wanted to be that anal, why wouldn't they just buy a P45 or an A75, and totally go for the gusto, if counting leaf blades was your cup of tea? Why would you settle on a CMOS sensor?
I'd just love to see a 100% mag side by side test. Something physical, to really see if it was worth the trouble.
And the other weird thing is, the same people who are screaming about resolution many times are shooting handheld instead of tripod, so doesn't that invalidate everything? How can you bitch about lack of resolution, and then in the same breath, ask for Image Stabilization, when you've got a mirror in there flopping around? Something just doesn't add up to me.
