That is probably only the case with a nikon...the latest generation of Canon IS looks great either way.


I have no complaints.

I've noticed some funky bokeh with my 75-300 IS Canon lens...I read about it in another thread and yeah, it's there sometimes. It's not horrific or anything, but I see a difference when the IS is off. Then again, maybe it's just me...that wouldn't be unheard of. ;)


the 75-300 lens is first generation IS, so yes it screws with the bokeh sometimes.

Depends on the particular lens I think.

The 100-400 IS can produce some odd bokeh occasionally, depending on shutter speed, apeture, and how much shake the IS is having to correct. I had borrowed one a while ago and noticed some odd 'mesh' like bokeh in some shots that was similar to the examples posted here in a thread about IS bokeh some time back.

The biggest difference in Bokeh with the newer L lenses is the rounded apeture blades, which makes the bokeh much more pleasing at less than wide open F stops.

Cheers, Me.
