So...where's the issue in the bokeh in the images I posted?

OK. Still not surprised; YMMV.

All at 800ISO. Leaves outside, and they moved between frames; they're outside a window BTW. All processed through PDCU 5.8.1, shot in DNG. Cropped to just show the bokeh. One was processed with motion control on in PDCU.

Geez dude...just came dangerously close to a spit-take on reading that, with said K-cup beverage just having been imported into my mouth. :lol:

But I disagree...it seems to work better in post-processing as a plugin while I wait for Lr, etc to do its thing.

I appreciate some of the reviewers' concerns, but frankly in the real world the other variables just seem to overwhelm some of those. Like the obvious differences in the lenses; they outstrip whatever the NR is doing in DPR's test scene. Even in just that scene I see sections I like better with either the K-1 or K-1ii depending on what bit I'm looking at, whether it's on the edge, etc. TL;DR: I just can't care about differences that small since they almost never will affect any images I want to make.

That being said, I guess reviewers have to talk about something, and camera makers' hype invites stuff like Where's Waldo hunts through handheld PS images for defects. And yeah, if I did action or video I'd prefer a Nikon or Sony. Perhaps these cameras are all so good there isn't much point to sweating the smaller details, esp since one has alternatives, even within the same brand.

Not really off-topic: that makes you the de-noise reduction engine of the forum. Keeping signal high and all that. Cheers!
