how about some 1.4 bokah???

Thats the Canon 50 1.4. I HATE the bokeh from it. Bokeh is subjective but my opinion from my use is that its a nervous one from that lens. Thats why i own the Sigma 50 1.4. Much more creamy and smooth.

Its jagged from that lens. The transition is not smooth at all. The 50 1.4 from canon needs an update bad! Use the L primes and you will see what im speaking to. The 50 1.2 (hit or miss on focus) produces excellent bokeh. Again its subjective but here is a shot with it. Doesnt hurt to have a beautiful model to shoot ;)

I take that same shot with the 50 1.4 from canon and its no where near as a pleasing bokeh. Again its subjective but from my use i would never own the canon 50 1.4.

^^^evian spell backwards is naive...expensive water for them.

Well even here my E+ delivered water cost more than $2 per gallon...tap water is water softened with potassium salt so need bottled water for better taste.

Sounds like a good case for a different water treatment system. Something like reverse osmosis.

Is your water softened with the salt or with zeolite? Ours doesn't give it a bad taste at all, it improves the taste. We do use a Brita filter for drinking water that we put in the fridge.
