Very interesting links, both of them. However, the reason behind the
signal-to-noise improvement with ETTR is clear: it _decreases_ the effective
ISO...
I recall doing a similar experiment a while ago... the GF1 has acceptable
quality (well, sort-of) up to ISO 800, but that's on daylight WB -- on
Tungsten setting it's no longer that good. Since the sensor's native WB
seems closer to daylight, what if I left the daylight setting and put a 80A
filter instead? I did it and reusulting image quality was _way_ better...
but then realized that now the exposure was equivalent to ISO 200 -- the 80A
filter loses about two stops :-(
I should have compared it with another shot without filter, but on Tungsten
WB @ ISO 200. Maybe some day...
Cheers,
