Re: the smooth out-pf-focus image you're getting with your 85/1.4 AF Nikkor
- - check out the number of diaphragm blades. I think Nikon increased them in
the AF version, and it has more blades than most lenses on the market
today. I believe this is a major source of "Bokeh" everybody talks about,
and why old Leica lenses show this so well too.
