What is the optimum T-stop range for the Cinefade effect?

A good Cinefade effect is one in which the depth of field noticeably changes so that the viewer perceives the effect. In our experience, a minimum 4-stop Cinefade over 1-3 seconds is required to make the effect visible and 5 stops are ideal.
