Just go figure out by yourself! :-)

Btw, with those digital filters and processing, do we still need larger sensors and lenses with larger/faster apertures? :-o

After initial shock I must say that:

- this "bokeh" are just random patches of "blur" without regard to fine details

- te strength of blur is equal on the whole area affected by it (sans edges), it's not gradual

- it does not even look like convolution/blur, it looks more like "soft" photo through some fine fabric

All in all, I don't like it at all...
