bokeh

Hi guys, As a relative newcomer (Pana GX9, Pentax shooter before/still) I am trying to understand which are the must have (AF / camera aperture) lenses for M43, with regards to rendering. Rendering could refer to sharpness, bokeh, color, bokeh transitions etc etc. But to not get bogged down in...

Chiyoko Super Rokkor 50/2 C Now this one I can see the summitar influence!

I found this to be an interesting video. Granted that may be due to my own views on photos have come to a similar place. And yeah, there was a long stretch of time which only recently ended when I shot nearly everything at f1.2-1.4.

Please post your pictures showing beautiful bokeh! Pencils by pictor / strolling shooter, on Flickr
