And I addressed my reply to issues other than pure DOF that affect
apparent DOF - including lenses and sensor systems. I suppose nobody
read it all, and who can blame them, but it IS a complex area and all
those factors ARE significant.

Nonetheless, this is a case where size does make a difference. ;-) So
how is one to reply meaningfully without mentioning size?

As do I, but the APS sensors are a significantly different size than
4/3, and that affects DOF.
I also tried to answer what I thought was the real underlying question,
"Is my E-500 inferior to the other major small sensor cameras in DOF?" -
No - and affirm that the example image is, in fact, an example of good DOF.
