Re: Nikon Lens for Bokeh?
Your 70-200 2.8 should give you killer bokeh. Wide aperture = bokeh. Not matter what lens you are using. Different lenses have different quality of bokeh. And your 70-200 is one of the bokeh kings. You should be able to get your 2.8 and strobes with a nikon. It will just send you into high speed sync. But the in the… -

I use an older Nikon AF300 f2.8, and it gives me good enough "Bokeh" for my clients...If you are right on the court sidelines than sometimes an 85 1.4 on a DX body is plenty good...If you don't mind manual focus than the Samyang 85 1.4 is a pretty good lense...Of course the Nikon AF85 f2 D is not that much more expensive…
