*** Not much different than claiming you can hear the difference between amplifiers on the same speakers.

It is it not exactly the same. This is why I reject any listening evaluations based on “compressing by contrast” or state that people have no idea what they listening or doing. Reference to www.audioannex.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=5&Number=1963

I have no problem with what you said. Though if you have a calibrated print process the experiment could be done not only with the transparencies. In many instances it would be even preferable to avoid the transparencies giving some idiosyncrasies and vulnerability of E-6. (Unless you nave VERY expensive and VERY calibrated and VERY personal E-6) Do not forget we are interesting not about the absolute result but about the delta. (Well, sort of…)

You didn’t describe the DEFERENCE BETWEEN OPTICS. (I think that was a topic). In fact an absolute shit of color by lenses is IRELEVENT. (Guilty as charged!) It would be similar to you having a 0.5% color glass all day long of spending time in a room with a different color temperature. Would it bother you (unless some very specific applications)? Do not forget the purpose of photography is to impact a human vision (and whatever after that)…. So the coloration of lenses is important as a photographic method and totally insignificant as the viewers’ benefit.

I am capable as well as you to discriminate the results form the different lenses but, honestly, I would NEVER pay attention to a total tone of the images.
