BTW, these aperture series are fantastic -- I learned some time ago (mostly from you) that lenses are the investment, and real-world tests like yours show me which give the 3D feel and pop I prefer.
DIGLLOYD: agreed, they are highly instructive in terms of sharpness, contrast, bokeh and behavior across the aperture range. Which is why I do a lot of them.

This APS-C crop explores how much real depth of field is gained with stopping down. Depth of field is not at all like calculations; it depends on actual lens performance.
