Cinegain Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Tomáto Tomàto. Nelly Fruitella, Nelly Furtado. Okidoki karaoke bokeh. Tbh. I don't really care. I like the term 'Bokeh' just fine, especially how Kai Man Wong says it. Simply bokehlicious delicious. Might just open a hipster 'Just Bokeh-ish' café 'We might not be the best, but we are pretty bokeh' and have healthy dishes like 'Bokehbowls'... where the coffee you order is a 'Bokehcino' just to mess with you. ? You know what does get under my skin though? When someone calls a light sensitive lens 'fast'. Like... I've got my shutterspeed figured out already, I don't want a change of pace. I just want it to let through more light... so a 'bright' lens (or aperture) to me makes more sense than a 'fast' one. 'Ooh, such a fast apertu...' SHUT IT! kaylee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When someone calls a light sensitive lens 'fast How about this: "Ooh, that lens is approaching zero!" Also: "The f-number of the human eye varies from about f/8.3 in a very brightly lit place to about f/2.1 in the dark". Maybe thats why f/1.2 looks so unnatural to me. See Tony's video (yeah that tony) to see why! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Ooh, such a fast apertu...' SHUT IT! lol @Andrew Reid 'slower apertures'. You did that on purpose, didn't ya? ? Joke's on you. I can not stand the use of 'fast aperture'. 'Slow aperture' doesn't bother me. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emanuel Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Hey, Nelly Furtado is 100% Portuguese genes. As much as bokeh has photography genes too! But you can call 'the light' to both of them! ; -) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
