For a good all around evaluation of a lens, I use my bookcase with the bindings and jackets of many hues of colors to be the ideal target. For precise tests I use the camera mounted on a tripod with both axes locked for multi-images at various f stops. This also works well for comparing flash vs. ambient illumination comparos. What other targets might work as well?

But the process of printing the photo you took of the color test chart will be further limited by your printer's inability to accurately reproduce colors. Got that? And on top of these, there are the charts I've made myself.
