![]() ![]() HELIOS 44: Now lets see another member of the Helios family.Helios 40-2 works best if you use it on a camera with a full frame sensor. Helios 40-2 is so famous that the old factory reopened and the production of the lens was continued. That means that you can take pictures only wide open but on the other hand that is what you must do to create swirly bokeh. Cyclops (F/1.5 85 mm) is aperture - less so it is a cheaper option. ![]() Basically it is exactly the same lens but it was attached to a night vision device during the Soviet era. Keep in mind though that Helios 40-2 is big and heavy and it is not the most budget friendly option. HELIOS 40: The best lens for that swirly effect is probably the Russian Helios 40-2 85 mm F/1.5.He satirized another youtuber ( Tony N.) cause in one of his videos the blur was really irritating, hence the word Toneh.Īnother example of swirly bokeh - The main subject is not in the center Youtuber Kasey used the term Toneh to describe the insane amount of bokeh background blur used by youtubers and vloggers to get a cinematic look in their videos. Nowadays Bokeh became a subject of satire. Some photographers call it a busy background. That means that you have a lot of sharpness in the background, hard edges and (or) harsh highlights. If your eyes are distracted then you have a bad bokeh and the cats eye effect can make things even worse. Your main subject is now even more attractive and the out of focus area may look dreamy. Swirly Bokeh makes that isolation even nicer, smoother and more appealing. The separation between your portrait subject and the background is obvious but not distracting. Your eyes will notice immediately the main subject of your picture and the background is easy on the eyes. Good bokeh and good swirly bokeh is when the background is creamy and soft. Good and Bad Bokeh and things to consider I saw some pictures that were shot with that lens and optically it was the best. Personally i never tested that version so i cannot verify it. That is why (according to some photographers) the most modern version of Helios 44 (44m-7) seems to swirls less. Until they discovered that this flaw is actually really cool and artistic when used correctly. Technically swirly bokeh was considered a defect of older designs and factories spent years to remove that flaw. The more away from the center or the main subject the effect becomes more obvious and looks like your camera created a pretty pattern. That is why some people call it the cat's eye bokeh. Bokeh bubbles also have a shape that reminds the eyes of a cat. Swirly bokeh is the effect of an image when the out of focus areas that surround your main subject look like an artistic vortex or swirl. It comes from the word bokeru that means to be blurred, to be out of focus, to be faded and hazy etc. ![]()
