He has a pdf in which he rates many lenses for their bokeh. http://theonlinephotographer.typepad.com/files/bokehrankings5.pdf He also comments that bokeh gets more problematic: the larger the aperture the closer the focus the more distant the background the more contrasty the background No wonder I had problems. My 3 photos included all of the problematic possibilities! Guess I'll try again. The Summicron does get a 10 in the lens ratings.
