separate RGB channels and is context aware. Noise seems to cause great
indigestion for deconvolution and I believe Focus Magic reduces it no matter
what. I am not sure, but despite a stable full of optics Ph.D's DXO could no
way quickly crank out lens module after lens module with lens specific PSF,
though aberration corrections clearly are carefully done---even to the point
of focus distance specific aberration correction when possible.
OK Mike, you asked for it. :-)
We could natter on for a long time, speculating about deconvolution (now
that I've looked it up). How about proof in the
pudding - or leaf litter.

Please limit comments on artistic choices. I did these to test DXO's RAW
conversion and standard processing defaults.
They aren't finished display images, as that might mask the things I'm
testing. I had to change one parameter to avoid a
blown red channel. The ACR/PS versions use a number of tools.
One 100% sample.

Another 100% sample.

So whaddya think? Which tools(s) would you pick?
