[QUOTE="bobmielke, post: 46366, member: 8952"] Bokeh(bowka) is determined by the speed of the lens. Nearly any lens can control the depth of field enough to gradually blur the background. Since the original poster mentioned portraits I would go with lens lengths above 75mm. The 50mm, any 50mm has a reputation for barrel distortion when used on very close-up portraits. My 18-200mm F/3.5-5.6 is easily used to control depth of field and thus bokeh. [/QUOTE]
