Hello Paul,

Yes, Photodo has always been popular for lens testing. There is
another more recent website that has been testing lens as well,
although the numbers of lens tested seems pretty significant.

http://photozone.de/

But how much can one rely on these lens test when samples variation
may be an important factor. Also, some lens test may have been done
using APS-C size sensor where a more central part of the lens is used
versus a camera with a full-frame photo-sensor.

Cheers,
Andre
