Hi,

I am the author of the Lens Blur blog post and the sentence was indeed wrong as a result of multiple edits. Bokeh and shallow depth of field are indeed two different things. By Bokeh we mean that the blur is synthesized using a disk kernel, e.g. as opposed to a Gaussian Blur. The blog is now fixed.

Hey, is there any chance we can download the RAW data alongside the JPG file?

You can extract the computed depthmap, all-in-focus image, and focus settings from the XMP data of the jpeg. See

https://developers.google.com/depthmap-metadata/

for the depthmap format.

That is awesome! But I think he meant the RAW image that hasn't still been debayered or saved in a lossy 8bit format (jpg)

It made the news last year but I guess hasn't still landed? For post processing, the RAW is so much more useful than a jpg
