I was already afraid that the word micro-contrast might trigger a new discussion. ;-)

 

I think the topic has multiple dimensions (the sensor/AA filter also plays a massive role for instance). However, at the end of the day - if micro-contrast isn't there, it just isn't there. You cannot recover lost information. You can, of course, ease the issue to a certain degree which in turn is a question whether the base situation is "good enough". From there on we are having an opinionated discussion. :-)

 

The other aspect is ... when does it matter anyway? I'd state that it isn't overly important in many scenes because the world is a rather contrasty place to start with. The discussion started with birds. If you have a black or white bird, that's about as challenging as it gets. Having micro-contrast or not means the difference between a "plastic bird" or the real thing. Of course, if we are talking about the "real thing" further aspects will come up like e.g. moiree.
