Well, I recall something about the big expensive Zuiko
250mm and 350mm telephoto lenses having a lot of "Bokeh"

It is a Japanese word that does not have an English 
equivalent.  I believe that it describes a special
quality of those big expensive lenses to isolate the
subject from the background.

Perhaps Tomoko or Jim T. can fill us in again?
Does that first photo on the Unofficial Olympus Gallery
show Bokeh?
