I've got no axe to grind here, (I'm Pentax and Leica  ) but I I'd like to point out that in the two full-size shots that Mr Horton missed fosusing on the model's eyes, thus denying us chance to see how good either lens really is.

When I read these "TV-shop testimonials" I always wonder whether it is the case of
A) a photographer who writes review/makes video/publicly announces something like this with intent of getting sponsorship from the manufacturer's marketing department
or
B) a photographer who writes review/makes video/publicly announces something like this because he already is sponsored by the manufacturer's marketing department.
Unless there is money involved, there is no reason to become a marketing puppy. None of your clients give a rat's ass what equipment you use for the photos.

Mounting a FF lens on a crop body seem to result in suboptimal resolution due to higher pixel density on crop sensor, wouldn't the same be true by mounting a medium format lens on a FF sensor? |

Medium format lenses are poor performers compared to small format lenses.
This is sure.
But it does not have to do with the size of the small format sensor penalizing the lens. Simply, medium format lenses are not built as resolving as small format lenses, because it's not worth the cost and the effort. I read a page about why medium format lenses don't have to be high resolvance, but I don't have the link.

I clicked on the link at Orios post.
The first I saw was a comparison between a Zeiss 3.5/18 and a Canon 2.8/16-35L. When I see such comparisons I have no interest to read.
