how would a "normal" macro lens stopped down to 5.6-8 look in comparison to the Dimage 5400 lens at 1:1 magnification?

In my limited shooting with the Minolta lens, due to work, I would guess that it would do very well, probably better.
In the past I have tested all kind of lenses, enlarger lenses, bellows lenses and you know what, the Sigma 50 or 70mm beats them all. But with the scanner lenses I think the APO correction and the faster aperture would beat a normal macro lens.
I plan to do lots more testing with the lens later in May when I am back from a trip to Africa. I will post the results here.
Thanks.
All the best,
Robert
