Hi Mike,
I will be looking forward to your synopsis.
For me the extra DoF really depends on what I am shooting. I tend to try and not overdo DoF in any case, not with FF, neither with MFT, Not overdoing DoF in my case means really both ways: not too shallow, but also not too deep. I do like to try and shoot at the apertures where the camera is best, or otherwise where DoF is just enough for me. Sharpness from close-up to infinity is highly overrated, especially as at infinity there is no sensor (or film) that actually can resolve any detail anyway , unless you use very long telelenses . Leaves on treas in the background generally are unrecognizable after all, short of the green mass in the background which you know are leaves .
For street it obviously is different, as you are quite close, and generally do not use telelenses .
Kind regards, Wim
