His lens tests are excellent. The lens rentals blog is the best place to find them [0]. If you're in market for high quality lenses, lens rental blog is a great resource.

I also like cameralabs' lens tests [1]. Not as scientific as lensrentals, however, it has real samples and images of charts for comparison, so you can get a sense for what the different resolution means in image resolution. It also tests things beyond resolution. Such as out of focus rendering, coma, sun stars, etc.

He does break down technical stuff is average Joe language. But, one this that does tick me off is his lens analysis does not consider larger formats.
is that because the limitation of his testing insurgents?
Probably, or maybe because medium format and large format lens reviews does not get him enough traffic/sponsorships/street-cred.
