Too many variables at play to make a meaningful comparison beyond that which the mathematics dictate (i.e., different focal lengths with different max apertures mounted to cameras of different formats will result in different DOFs and angles of view/magnification. Whew!)

It's hard enough to compare the OOF rendering for lenses of identical specs (smell the bouquet!) much less toss in so many other factors. That topic alone has probably generated a hundred-thousand threads.

As to "thou must create portraits thus" debates, spare me.

Cheers,
