[QUOTE="STM, post: 123298, member: 12827"] The 180mm f/2.8 ED Nikkor is so sharp you have to wear heavy leather gloves when using it to keep from slicing your fingers open. It is pretty much my go to lens for outdoor portaiture if I have lots of room, because it is tack sharp at f/4 and throws the backgound way out of focus. And as you saw, the bokeh is buttery smooth. The ED version is a little sharper than the non-ED one, which I had before this one, because the ED glass eliminates color fringing, mostly in the corners, but on an 8x10 I doubt you would see the difference.
