bokeh is possible if your subject is near and you zoom to the max focal length plus ur background is far away ...  whistling.gif

and also by adjusting to smaller aperture number right?(shallow DOF)
QUOTE(aldosoesilo @ Feb 9 2011, 11:26 PM)
yeah I suppose 70mm will be good enough for bokeh since focal length affect bokeh.
anyway look at some sample picture taken with it. I like the sharpness.

that lens is discontinued by Nikon right?

Never Knew Nikon Turned Down Photoshop
QUOTE
Photoshop? No thanks.  Tragically, in my view, Nikon saw itself as a hardware supplier and did not see any reason to extend the Nikon brand into software or services. In 1988, at the MacWorld show, the Nikon team was approached by two brothers who offered them the rights to market an imaging software application. The brothers were Thomas and John Knoll. The application was called Photoshop.  Whilst there was a great deal of enthusiasm for the product from the Nikon European and US marketing teams to market the software under the Nikon brand, the Japanese HQ decided Nikon was not a software company and they could not see a market for it so turned down the opportunity. The rest as they say is history. (Just for the record, Kodak as well as several other photographic giants, turned Photoshop down too.) [Adobe decided to purchase the license to distribute Photoshop in September 1988. Photoshop 1.0 for Macintosh was released in 1990.]   In the end, Nikon's EIE [Electronic Imaging] division was merged back into the photo division which of course made economic sense. Sadly, in my view, much of the original pioneering spirit and vision seemed to get lost when that happened. Nikon's business was refocused on broader consumer markets and much production was moved to Thailand and China.

We had recommended that Nikon didn't call the next generation, E2 replacement camera, the D1X as this would be laughed at by British photographers because it sound like 'dicks'! They didn't listen to us though. laugh.gif
