It depends which kind of bokeh I want to get.
For a creamy bokeh with a very narrow DoF: Nikkor-S.C 1.2/55.
For a very special bokeh with excellent sharpness in the sharp areas: Volna-9 2.8/50 Macro.
For what is generally considered a pleasant bokeh:
- Nikkor-H 1.8/85
- Volna-3 2.8/80
- Tair-11 2.8/133
- Leica Summicron-R 2.0/50
and several others...

There are many lenses with very good bokeh. Bokeh depends on how we decide to make photo. Not only but sometimes "macro" shot with average lens give us impression that this particular lens develops beautiful bokeh. Well, the most valuable are shots from distance.
Looking for any cine lenses make me jealous and probably next task it will be just to try something new.
Below are 4 pictures. The subject is always the same. Grace is somebody very special for me. So please don't complain 
Every picture was converted from PEF to TIFF using Faststone, from TIFF to jpg with CS2 "save for web", resizing and compressing only. NO OTHER PP was done like contrast, sharpness, curves etc. All photos were done without any additional support like tripod, monopod.
Distagon 4/50
Sonnar 4/150
Tamron 2.5/180
Tamron 2.8/80-200

no-X: Regarding the shots from the Elgeet. It's a oscillo navitar. So it's an industrial lens for catching oscilloscope traces.
Therefore the huge amount of optical deficiencies.
Here's a shot of the lens.
A shot with it at infinity. Easy to see the optical flaws. These lenses were made with a curved field in mind.
And finally some lens p*rn with it.

I would include the word "often". But you make an important point. The distance relationships between camera, subject and background, and lens FL, are often ignored. People are too busy counting aperture blades.

And here is some crazy bokeh for you. If anyone can guess what lens it is I am really impressed.

what a great thread.
S-M-C Tak 50/1.4
I don't know if this photo even qualifies as a sample for bokeh, I am quite new to photography, but I like the rendering of the background.
..or is it just memories of a few happy days of friendship with this freespirited girl, why I specially like this photo?
so many photos in this thread highlight the bokeh rendering of a specific lens very well, this sample may not do that.
or does it?
I am curious and grateful for any opinion
best regards,
kuuan

Ballu: Please report how it handles on the canon after you have it finished. About the smaller brother 5cm 2,9 I have no clue of the performance. I have the brother in between, the 80mm 2,9 and, that lens have not got the same close focus behaviour as the 105 mm.
Kuuan: About bokeh. I believe it is the rendering of the background just as your sample shows. Many people mostly look for how the out of focus highlights render. Bright ring, neutral or gaussian. This may be a a good indication on how the lens renders OOF areas, but it is not the same as bokeh, in it's original meaning.
BTW, that SMC-Tak 50 1.4 is a lovely lens and creates wonderful bokeh.
Here is a shot from mine.
Here is one from Olympus zuiko 85mm F2 MC. Frosty greeting from Sweden.

My Radionar 50/2.9 is multi coated, rare and sharp... with excellent bokeh (as it is not that fast, but bokeh are nice).

Color contrast is fantastic. I think I'll start looking for a friend to the 180/4 APO Lanthar

And the 180/4 APO Lanthar is on my wanted list.

I had to check your flickr page and among all your lovely lenses I fell for the Graphic Raptar Wollensak 161mm f/4.5.
Do you have a picture of that setup maybe?

Cosina Voigtländer Macro Apo Lanthar 125mm.
The focus is off a few mm, but I guess this thread is about the bokeh.

Color contrast is fantastic. I think I'll start looking for a friend to the 180/4 APO Lanthar |
I wondered when the CV125 would make it to this list .... looks like a wonderful lens, everyone who has it seems to love it.
Your "friend" may well cost you around 1200 dollars, seems to be current price.
I bought an APO 180/4 but it got lost in the post

Yes, thats wide open.... The lens creates magic in shades and low light indoor... but have zero IQ in sunlight (but who wants to use that fast lens in sunlight....

The lens was mounted on Bellows. Give me a day or 2.. I will try to find that....
And about Radionar 105/4.5... its mounted on bellows now (by mounting lens on M42 cap)... tomorrow, weather permitting, going out for testing...

The Pentacon 135 preset is impressive (as it is supposed to be). The transition between focused and unfocused areas is a bit difficult, though. I just posted samples (including an 100% crop from a 5D of the transition) on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/paulcowan/sets/72157611818330702/
Incidentally, I feel that there is a considerable feeling of "depth" in the skyscraper photo which I haven't noticed on newer lenses. I don't know if that is a feature of this lens or an accident of the light, I need to do some more tests. |
