Canon or Nikon: lens-based decision
[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.

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.

You're doing this on purpose, don't you? Please re-read my message: linking is no problem. Embedding is.

What you call embedding, is linking, Markus. And I am just explaining why I can't show images I did not make!

Well, if you don't get it, fine ... I'm sure almost everybody else did.

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='Wink' />
