Canon press or banner of Truth who wrote best translation of Institutes of the Christian Religion?

[B.L.Smith]

I see Doug Wilson has come out with a new translation of The Institutes of the Christian religion from Canon Press.
I was wondering if anybody has read and compared it to the edition produced by Banner of Truth called, Institutes of the Christian Religion, Calvin's own essentials Edition. I'm looking to buy a copy and was hoping for a more modern translation.

Note: Beveridge translated it. Wilson is just trying to sell it under his company name. Despite being associated with Wilson, the Beveridge translation is quite good and probably my favorite. It is not a "modern" translation. If anything, McNeill and Battles is more modern (and not necessarily in a good way).

The BoT version is of the 1541 edition, not the 1559.

Yes, there are lots of ways to get the Beveridge translation without helping fund the Muscovites. The last thing that guy needs is more money.
