Very pretty, Paul! And, a good price, too, by the looks of it.
And Cesar will appreciate the covering, I think! vbg

No, not really. The aperture blades have an effect on the shape of specular
out-of-focus highlights, but the essential characteristics of _bokeh_ have
more to do with off-axis

It's amazing what you can do in woodshop.
Is that one of those alternatives to Photoshop? Where can I download a
copy?

Correct.
But 11 Mp camera is better than 6 Mp camera. But the other 24x36 mm sensor camera has
only 6 Mp - perhaps Pentax made the right decision after all.
And I am quite sure that it is not going to end here.
All the best!

Not bad - but I think that Voigtländer Bessa-R at 275 $ would have been more practical.
All the best!
