Absolutely. I wonder what IS do to bokeh. Bokeh is very important in a long telephoto
lens because theres little chance that everything will be in focus with such a lens.
I have never really been a bokeh connoisseur but after aquiring the Limited lenses
I've become one. This lenses have more soul than Otis Redding! Not only are their
bokeh exxcellent but I would say that they are creative instruments. Try get down in a
flower field with the 77 Limited at close focusing distance and you'll know what I
mean. This lenses suck in air and space in a way I've never seen in other lenses. Not
only are the Limited lenses excellent in bokeh and in the 3D feel department, but also
most FA* lenses. Both the FA* 600/4 and FA* 200/4 macro gives superb bokeh and that
three dimensional look. Hell, I can spot photographs shot with the FA* 600/4 lens by
observing the out of focus area. Hence, I'm certain that Matthias Klum's National
Geographic june issue front page is shot with the FA* 600/4.
