Oh well. Mine is a bad question then! But if I restated it . . .If you didn't mind extending your test, what happens at around 35 meters, which would be within the focal range of the A*300 (with depth of field effect) but at infinity for the F*300?Chet, I'm glad you were asking Dave that question, because I don't understand the question - <g>. (Sorry.)Fred
It seems to me that for 300mm lenses the more automatic the lens, the less the bokeh. (I don't know!!!!)
It goes back to something I was wondering about earlier when I noticed that the SMC 300 is marked to focus to 300 feet before infinity; the M* and A* dropped to 150 feet before infinity; and the F* has dropped to 60 (or 80?) feet before infinity.
So what happens if the subject is at 200 feet (with a distant background)? Would the SMC 300 display DOF effects, whereas the F*300 would have it all at infinity?????
