Bokeh comes from the Japanese word “boke” which means “blur” or “haze” and is the photographic term for shots with specific out of focus points within a photo. This normally intentional effect can dramatically change a shot by shifting the focus to specific parts of an image you want to highlight, or to simply make an image more aesthetically pleasing to the eye. You can check out the “Battle of the Bokeh” videos on the DigitalRev channel here, where we compare some of the best cameras and lenses for the bokeh effect.
