Wrote a program to do the very same thing in FORTRAN 20 years ago !
My concern is the "Circle of Confusion", what is acceptable in some
circumstances may not be for others, e.g. the acceptable (what degree of
unsharpness will I tolerate) size may depend on the degree of enlargement of
the final image and the viewing distance, etc., etc.
I guess there is a "Standard" size for the CofC, what is it, and for
what situations is it "optimized" for ? When I was doing calculations of
DOF I allowed the CofC size to be specified by the user, depending on how
critical the sharpness requirement was.
Sorry, just my ramblings, nothing is ever "absolute".
