Well, this is one reason why it isn't always good to take a statement at face value in these types of threads. :(

And remember; the OP admitted that he post-processed the results anyhow, so ANY A/B comparison is invalid right off the bat because of introduced bias.

It isn't FAIR to ask people which is better when you manipulate the data....

Well, mostly true. In most raw converters, you can copy the adjustments from one file to another. This is critical for doing panos with raw files.

According to Exiftool, 1378 was a Canon 24-105 F4, 1/200 and F8 at 68mm.

1379 was a Canon EF-S 18-200 F 3.5-5.6 at 1/200 F8, 70mm.

No mention of Sigma. Hmm . . . . .

Odd because Digital Photo Professional(DPP), which is the proprietary Canon raw editor, did not recognize the 24-105 used as a Canon lens. If the image was captured using a Canon EF 24-105mm L, DPP would have correctly identified it.

...and would have corrected its problems automatically. Hence, the image would have been "perfected". Should've used the 24-105 f4L!
