But I'm always far more concerned about the "in focus part" and whether it makes a good picture to start with! The out of focus is just the fluff and if it's just a non starter cake the fluff ain't goin' to make it a better picture. These comments have absolutely nothing to do with the marvelous quality of Steve's photography as he's got the great cake image to start with and that's what makes it work, the out of focus effects is just a nice icing on the cake! ted Ted Grant Ted Grant Photography Limited tedgrant@home.com - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Frank Filippone" <red735i@earthlink.net> To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2001 6:37 AM Subject: [Leica] Noctilux vs Those "Other" lenses > Has anyone compared the Noctilux against the 50 ( 55? 58? ) F1.2 Nikkor or > Canon or Minolta?
