Haha. I just... don't really give a toss because I see no point in making this kind of comparisons between formats for anything other than purely academic purposes. But I guess I'd also said that before. Besides, a lot of the time I'm struggling to get more stuff inside DOF, not less, so for me the shallow DOF is not a be-all end-all and not a positive (nor negative) phenomenon per se, it depends on the situation. I guess I can't be alone on that count though...

BTW I'm also using a 1.6x APS-C camera now. If you feel compelled to make cross-format comparisons all the time, then for the sake of completeness you must also include that one when talking to me.

OH ok. Can do. f2.4 / 1.6 = f1.5 Canon APS-C equivalent.

Dear Wim, in digital photography there is one particular thing that has NO meaning what so ever, and that is light per area unit. No one photographs per area unit. Only per image frame. So get off that hobby horse of yours, and get your act together.

f1.2 stands for aperture size for focal length at hand, not for "brightness value for no matter which camera/lens combination". We don't use the same film for different format cameras, so no use in pretending we are.

With equivalent focal lengths, f1.2 on FF may mean an aperture with a diameter of 42mm, and then that means the MFT lens has an aperture with a diameter of 21mm. If you were a bug, walking under those openings, guess which hole would make the light falling on you more bright.

Kind regards, BC.
