Canon or Nikon: lens-based decision - Brightcolours - 03-08-2011 [quote name='jtra' timestamp='1299446541' post='6561'] I fully agree. You might be interested in my article on bokeh: http://jtra.cz/stuff/essays/bokeh/index.html Could you show comparison of out of focus highlights of the 85/1.4 G (both foreground and background)? Like I do in the article with the Sigma 50/1.4. That would be interesting. [/quote] No I can't, as I do not have access to the lens. I can show images that at the same time show not so smooth background bokeh and very smooth foreground bokeh, though. Well, I could but due to a strange ruling in Germany by some judge, against Google, I can't link images on here since this site has its base in Germany. Markus can, however. But probably wil not have the time.

I'm sure almost everybody else did. -- Markus Canon or Nikon: lens-based decision - IanCD - 03-08-2011 We know (social science principles) that arguing points is far more likely to elicit refutation and counter-argument, and to entrench opposing points of view, than it is to convince anyone they were wrong to start with. A quick example: I don't give a (add chosen expressive noun) about football... but if someone starts arguing that Team X is way, way better than Team Y - a Team that I maybe once used to 'support' (in a very loose and lukewarm use of the that term) - then I just might be tempted to argue for Team Y... and the more I argue, the more I come to believe that Team Y really does have merits over Team X... which may or may not be true. The only effect of my arguing, though, will be to convince the supporter of Team X that they are right, because they've come to believe it more strongly the more they've heard themselves arguing the case. Time to walk away from this one? <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> Ian |
