Next OL lens lab test - Tamron 35mm f/2.8 Di III OSD M1:2
#12
"Corners are not edges.... Circles have en edge too (one edge: its circumference). Where the edges in polygons meet are vertices or corners. Tricky to say what you mean correctly... Yes, a heptagon has more edges (7, versus 1 of a circle), but just as much edge. And a shape with more edges gets more and more smooth, until you call it a circle and it only has one edge, basically. So, "more edgy" does not cover it."
 ........................................................................................................................

 Some trigonometrical diatribe BC ....... not sure sure it has any relevance to ordinary english speaking human beings though, with all it's vertices and heptogonic references ...... Smile

 ........ personally, I'm perfectly happy with Klaus's use of "edgy" ...... a useful word which applies itself to many situations ........ "to be on edge" (nervous) ........ "to have the edge on someone" (advantage)........ to behave in an edgy fashion ........ ........ to be on the edge (breakdown) ...... etc.....


 ...... maybe I might have phrased it slightly diferently ?? ..... only slightly .......

  "The circular shape is maintained at F4, but it's edgy aperture form becomes more prominent/dominant from F5.6 onwards."

   ......... the bottom line is, if you are going to correct an editors English on a public forum .........

.......... you've really have to make certain that you are right ....... !!  Smile
