LOL Bokeh is "the quality of the out of focus blur" so all cameras and lenses have bokeh. Exactly what the bokeh looks like depends on the format, the lens, the aperture setting, the distance setting, and the scene. Larger formats allow more control of selective focus zone when there's enough lens speed and the magnification of the subject is the same compared to smaller formats. IOW, you can make more blur by narrowing the focus zone with a 50mm lens on 24x36 mm format than you can with 16x24 mm format and a 35mm lens, given the same range of apertures to work with. Bokeh, however, is the quality of the blur, not the magnitude. -- Godfrey godfreydigiorgi.posterous.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
