Wrong wrong wrong and wrong again. I have had EDoF for 1 1/2 month now. Normal pictures in daylight is good. Video is excellent. Macro is impossible, even (semi) close ups are difficult with dirt poor quality.

99% of the users will definitely not be happy with EDoF. What is correct is that for 99% of the usage, 100% of the users will be happy. For 1% of the usage (assuming macro and close ups to be 1%), then 0% will be happy.

That 1% is more than enough to upset the 99% where it is OK. That happens maybe once a week, or once every other week, it doesn't matter. Every time it happens you think, this is a piece of utter **** and want to throw it out the window. You cannot rely on the camera to do its normal camera job, and that is far from good enough.
