Re: PESO: f1.8

Thanks Christian.
I do have more space in the full frame, but I cropped it
tight. Most of the shots on the sample agency cards that the
model gave me were very tight crops. I think that's because
the prints aren't all that big and they want to get a good
look at the face.

I kind of like the bokeh but apparently not everyone agrees.
I'll be posting some more eventually that are shot at f2.5
and maybe even f4. It will be interesting to see the
reaction to those. Sometimes it's the combination of light
and dark and color mixes that produce unhappy bokeh rather
than the lens. Note that the bokeh to the right of the model
is quite smooth, while to the left, with the yellow and
green mix, it's rougher.
