In my opinion, the last two images show that the common place that stopped down is always better for landscapes, is not always true.

Agree completely! The landscape looks more inviting and interesting shot wide open.

More than wide open or not, I think that the "quid" is the distance to the subject, what do you want to show in the pic and how.

This sensor delivers (with the right lens) a clarity that I have rarely seen before! Shocked

Yes, you hit the point precisely (in my opinion)
Depth, roundness.
That is a quality that is already present in the original 5D. In this new one perhaps even more.

Of course like you say, it needs to be supported by proper lenses. All EOS cameras deliver smooth tones transitions. Lenses that have good microcontrast go together well with them, in my opinion.
This is why I find many of the stock Canon images, too "sweet", because EF lenses are often well resolving but low contrast. I think that German and Russian lenses are a better match for EOS cameras.

I guess it depends a lot on the 'story' you want the picture to tell. The first one works at WO as it projects an eerily feeling to it, at least that how I see it. The stopped down ver. simply does not work - I find it difficult to find the 'story' it is painting.

But your pictures with the 5D2 is really killing me. If you keep doing this, I might end up driving to the shop to get one.....arghhhhh!

It does not work because there is too much stuff in the scene and shooting stopped down puts everything in focus creating confusion. The wide open shot keeps the different planes separated bettering the understanding of the scene.
That is what I wanted to say, it's not true that stopped down it's always the best for a landscape: it often is, but there are situations where it is not.
