My guess is so wrong regarding the bokeh. The length of the boat must be much shorter than 10 meters. At least I got the focal length ;-)

As for a short break,
Thanks to everyone attending this thread. I enjoy and learn lots from all of you.

Nice portrait. I am working on it ;-)

It was a guess based on hints and trying to figure out what fit the bill. Zeiss rendering is pretty lens dependent and I've not used that one so no, not the rendering (though the lens did render very nicely)

Yep indeed.
The boat is in fact canal barge. Around 6m in length I guess. But yes, at least you got the focal length right

Gents,
yo! should I throw in any hints or you're on your way to name the lens and aperture?

Seems rather wide lens, DA15?

Siegfried · 05-12-2011, 10:38 AM

Peter,
the full answer includes both lens name and aperture used. Yep, it's DA15 - and I thought it'd be very obvious and easy to guess since I'm not aware of any other wide lens that will give you any pleasant bokeh should one happen.

Zig

P.S.
Okey, it's f5.6

Who's next?

axl · 05-12-2011, 12:15 PM

OK,
sorry, I thought it was wide open anyway...

here is next one:

hint: it's wide open

I compared my photo of 50mm. This has to be longer.
I can't tell the lens when seeing the bokeh, perhaps the harsh is there due to the plants' body.

M85f2?

nope,
it's shorter...

hoanpham · 05-12-2011, 02:08 PM

Hint please.
How close are you to the subject?
I need some real life object to determine focal length. The DOF is hard to measure in this photo.

PGillin · 05-12-2011, 02:15 PM

Yashica or Sekor M42 60mm Macro?

hoanpham · 05-12-2011, 02:21 PM

The bokeh is similar to K50f1.2
2,5 - 3 meters to subject.

erkie · 05-12-2011, 03:32 PM

DA 18-55 @ 30-40mm ?

I don't remember how far/close I was but the above is the closest guess so far but it's not 50
