Seriously, so many people have so many views, including those who say what does bokeh matter, surely it is the in-focus part of the image that is important. Bokeh is the quality of the out of focus areas of an image, relative to how the components of the out of focus areas and the transitions between them appear. The Nikon list recently had the same topic dicsussed and the best submissions came from people who posted images to demonstrate what they regarded as good and bad bokeh. I think the first picture of my daughter Sophie on the link below has good bokeh, although such is the nature of bokeh that there may be many people who will now disagree.
