The myth of the large sensor "high ISO advantage"

[J A C S]

Then I am afraid that the laugh is all on you. In case you haven't noticed, what Lab D tried to show with this pair of images is that you can increase the OOF blur via software by an amount equivalent to a stop or two without having the image look manipulated.

Right, and one example proves the general case. Brilliant!

BTW, the right blur to use is lens blur, not Gaussian, as he did. It looks fake.

What he didn't try to show is that the second of the two images is close to what you can do with a fast lens on FF.

But that was the context of his remark.

If that had been his purpose, he would of course have started out with an image that showed more OOF blur in its unmodified state than the one above does.

But he did not.

But he would not know that.

What makes you think that you are in a position to know that he wouldn't?

It is not like this is the firs post of his I read.
