I'm not in love with the rings. Would the 24 1.4 gm be a significant upgrade?

If you can see colored onion rings in images like this then it is pure halusination and not a real life phenomenon.

If you see rings here than it is most likely the lightening of the scene.

The onion ring issue can be seen in heavily stretched, preferably under exposed, images of a evenly lit white area. Taking images towards zenith in fog is an ideal excample.

False test. False alarm. No onion rings!

I think he refers to the bokeh, not the Color Polygon issue discussed elsewhere. But I appreciate your sensitivity to the issue :-)

Seems you are right - cats eye bokeh and such things. The title reads onion rings...

And yes - we get blinded at times! ;-)

Am into astrophotography (not halusinations :-D) and have handeled my share of colored ortogonal shapes and onion rings - so this is a familiar landscape here.

The issue is real.

But it is not a good thing when an issue like this one erranously is used to explain all kinds of unrelated issues.

Love onion. Familiar with onion rings. Hate colored onion rings! :-D

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but I'm referring to this. It's not a smooth as I had hoped for, so I'm wondering if the 24mm 1.4 would be significantly smoother without visible rings.

So you are looking for the quality of the out of focus blur (bokeh).

The G and GM lenses are made for softer out of focus blur, especially the GM lenses.

Hope someone using the 1.4/24 mm GM will chime in and show some out of focus blur from light points in the dark.

Thank you. It looks like most of the pictures don’t have noticeable rings. There was one image near the end of Phillip’s blog post where it was visible. “The distance was a typical half body portrait”

At a 0.3m focus distance they go away. Also from Philip’s blog

Maybe I should make a post asking people what their experiences are with the 24mm
