Default Hasselblad (Carl Zeiss) lens v. Sony-Carl Zeiss lens on Sony a900

I took photos of the same subject (tail side of a Brit pound coin) at
the closest focus of the Hasselblad 120 f/4 Makro (mounted on a Sony
a900). Images are at a slight angle to the subject, best focus is on
the lower part of the coin.


Hasselblad (Carl Zeiss) 120 f/4 Makro (f/8, 1/200, ISO 200)

Then compared to the Sony Carl Zeiss 135 f/1.8 at the same distance
(f/4.5, 1/200, ISO 200).

The contrast seems higher with the Hassy lens, however the exposure is a
little higher with the Sony lens, so hard to tell. (I shot each at
about 2 stops closed from wide open and then adjusted the flash power,
so may not match exp. perfectly).
