Re: Bad bokeh limits it's usefulness.
I haven't noticed the bokeh as "bad" at all. Granted, I'm shooting it on a 70D so I'm cropping off the outer edges... I just took mine outside for a couple of minutes as the sun set and my dog did her business and snapped some pics of her at the edge of the frame and with the foliage of a live oak in the background (recipe for nasty bokeh from what I understand) and I didn't see anything "bad". Maybe I didn't do it right...? I've never "tested" bokeh before. But again, nothing has stood out as negative in the past.
Here are 2 snaps that are basically awful but I wasn't worried about anything other than trying to get "bad bokeh". Again, I don't know how to setup shots that are supposed to demonstrate the flaws of a lens so if this ain't it, don't lose your marbles over it
Oh, and pardon the lack of grooming. She's blowing her coat. I just brushed her for half an hour on Wednesday and she's already got (what we call) "chunks" coming out of her fur. They're so large we just grab them with our hands - they're about the length and density of a cigarette filter when you peel the paper off of it - it's NUTS! Such is life with a Siberian Husky. She's got another date with the brushes tomorrow! Anyway... pics...

QUOTE: "Another conclusion: After having read a few hundred instances of “fanboy” references during research for this article, it’s clear to me that the word has lost whatever potency it might once have had as an insult. It’s too much of a cliché, too inappropriately dismissive, too likely to be tossed in as an ad hominem attack by someone who shows signs of extreme fanboyism himself."
In other words - takes one to know one. And you lack creativity.
