NEW YORK NEW YORK – More work on “bokeh”, the quality of the out of focus portions of the image. I’m getting lovely bokeh from my Leica 50mm Luxochrom stopped down a stop or two. Wide open it has the “nervous” bokeh typical of highly corrected lenses.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – Out and about today with my Leica Monochrom and a very special lens: a Leica 35mm Summicron version IV that was manufactured in 1982, the so-called “bokeh king”. This lens does indeed have fairly creamy bokeh (the character of the out of focus portions of images) so I shot subjects that provided an opportunity to demonstrate bokeh. You may remember that I’m reviewing my whole lens collection on the subject of bokeh.
