p.45 #1 · "Admirable" blur samples

I was not offended at all. I can see a difference in DOF with the mp-e 65 and the Zuiko 38/2.8. Shorter lens. More dof. Thus there should be a big difference between a 65 and a 100 or 135 mm macro.

Tilt can make wonders for dof... Look at the yellow flowers.

I'm sorry but I don't get it and I sure wish I was smarter and more witty. I tried a Zebra lens once but never heard about a macaroni lens. What title? Maybe it doesn't matter.

Sorry for the confusion. It's a Canon 100mm macro lens on a 40D.

Hi, That's OK, as you can see in the posts above we got that figured out, but what freak'n Canon 100/2.8 Macro? I think they have made at least three different ones. /Jonas

I am going to get one of those 180/2.8 apo's one day.

Here's another Leica lens, the 35/2 summicron-R wide open:

Winter comes along quite suddenly here in Perth, it was around 33C last week and now it's quite chilly and the greenery is re-emerging.

Sorry for the crap shot, it's almost a 100% crop (let's say 85%?) wide open, and I was just playing around so no real subject or meaning to the shot.

Nikkor 105/2.5 AIS wide open on FF, at a little bit of distance. This lens is unbelievably good when it comes to bokeh.

I bought a Nikkor 50/1.8 AIS "long nose" for its small size and low weight, to use when I don't want to carry the Sigma. My intention was to use it stopped well down, but after some testing I find it quite good from f/2.8 and on. Even the bokeh is OK!

This is at f/2.8 on D700. No problems at all with flare or ghosting. The OOF blur discs are not round, but kind of neutral in illumination.

I'm no expert but your 180/2.8 APO shots exhibit a very dramatic "3D" effect and abrupt plane of focus. Makes for very nice looking shots, modern Leica glass at it's best. I really need to save $$ Paul, and you're not making it easy!
