Originally posted by jct us101 I see lots of reviews of the 43mm but they all say the bokeh sucks. I haven't been able to find a lot of samples either, so I'm just wondering...does it have that creamy smooth bokeh like the 77mm or is it like any other f/1.8 lens when it comes to that?
Not all of the reviews conclude that the bokeh "sucks." Perhaps you missed some of the positive comments.
Simply, the FA 77mm Limited is capable of producing a 'softer' and 'creamier' bokeh than the FA 43mm Ltd. There are many example images from both lenses at the links suggested in the other posts here. Another source for sample images is Flickr; search for 'Pentax FA 43mm".
