<div dir="ltr">Hi,<div>I was talking about other filters (maybe they called AA filters). There are two of them ATM: Box and Gaussian.

<p>All the filters you mention have negative lobes, so although they technically could be implemented, my guess is that they won't be. It would be very unexpected behavior to a user if they switched filters and suddenly their image was twice as noisey.</p>
