Hi folks,
I would love your take on the subject.
I have found DSLRs/mirrorless cameras with AA filters (eg. A9 i, Z6 ii, etc.), particularly heavy ones, giving soft output for feather details as opposed to cameras with no AA filters (eg. d500, d850, A7 iii etc) with other factors being the same for all practical purposes.
The only time I was able to get sharp results from heavy AA filter bodies was when the light was exceptional & the ISO was low.
However, in the same situation the non-AA filter bodies would perform better.
I find it a little annoying that often pro photographers don't talk about it as much as I suspect that they often shoot with exceptionally sharp telephoto lenses which somewhat negate the AA filter effect.
Your thoughts?
