Well - I'd been about to suggest it was the aperture setting (iris shape varies some as you close it down, right?) but after checking just now, both the emu head shot and the flamingo chick were at f/4.5. So you must be right, what's being shot must have something to do with it - contrasts in the background? its distance from the subject? I sure don't know much about optics.

I took my younger son on a zoo trip today - my first since getting the *istDL earlier this summer. What fun! I left the kit lens at home and ended up sticking with a manual focus SMC-A 80-200 f/4.7-5.6 for most of the shooting. I like the lens pretty well, apart from thinking the bokeh a tad obtrusive:
A kid with a point-and-shoot was determined to get the best shots she could:
Did you know pink flamingo chicks aren't pink? I didn't.
And love was all around. (kids, look away for a minute)
