Mirrorless Camera Sharpness

My deal breaker tests for any camera I own have camera/lens sharpness as a critical requirement. After doing my homework reading reviews I make my purchase and then begin running a series of tests I've devised for all new photographic gear. It generally takes me a few weeks of constant shooting under varying conditions to grade my purchases. I gave the photo below gave an "A+" in my sharpness evaluation of the new 55-200mm F/3.5-4.8 Fujinon lens on a Fuji X-E1 body. Everything I shoot during these tests is without flash or support such as a tripod or monopod. I'm also testing the Optical Image Stabilization while hand holding the camera. This gear preformed flawlessly.

Can't argue with the evidence in front of your eyes. Very nice and sharp, lovely colours as well.
