Yeah, the bokeh leaves something to be desired, but I wouldn't call it
nasty. I think bokeh quality is quite often the result of the
placement, shape and color of background objects rather than the way
the lens renders them. Although I must admit that i have had my doubts
about converters and bokeh. I've had some unhappy bokeh experience when
combining the A400 with the A2XS converter. Again, I was never sure
that it wasn't the result of the subject rather than the rendering. In
this shot, the bokeh could easily be repaired by cloning out some of
the out of focus branches.
