| Optics and Lenses - This forum is aimed towards the TECHNICAL side of photographic OPTICS and LENSES. There will be some overlap by camera/manufacturer, but this forum is for the heavy duty tech discussions. This is NOT the place to discuss a specific lens or lens line, do that in the appropriate forum. This is the forum to discuss optics or lenses in general, to learn about the tech behind the lenses and images. IF you have a question about a specific lens, post it in the forum about that type of camera, NOT HERE. |

This is not a particularly interesting image but it shows well the lovely swirling bokeh of the Minolta MC 58mm f1.2

Love the background in your shot here ;-)
Here is one of the first shots with the Canon 85/1.8 LTM (a more technical shot, especially for this very thread  ):

Ah darn Kristian, you remind me, why I loved that 28 Cron ASPH in the first place - such a beautiful background rendering for such a wide angle lens!
I sold mine, as it is too wide for me on the M9. I see a new sample in my future :-(
