And aside from the bokeh, the image shows good sharpness and contrast for being wide open. For shooting productions on stage, the 77 FA is pretty much the only lens I use if there are only two people on the stage. When the square dancing starts, I have to go to 32 or 43. Jeffery On Jan 23, 201

Re: peso - some bokeh - fa 77 wide open

It's kind if strange, but I don't mind it. It might be a little distracting because it's unique-looking. But I don't find it "busy" looking like some bokeh. Looks a bit artsy. Jeffery On Jan 23, 2011, at 10:41 PM, Sasha Sobol wrote: > http://www.flickr.com/photos/sobol/5382974835/ > > Tell me

That is rather obvious. OTOH, it is 40 MP vs. 15, A tight center crop is exactly where this difference will show. The 645D shot is nicer, however. How does the 645D at the high end of the iso range? 1600, right? On Sun, Jan 23, 2011 at 4:44 PM, AlunFoto wrote: > 2011/1/23 Chris Mitchell : >>
