it is the blur created by the lens & DOF, it`s not that hard to understand.

NO, it's the quality of the blur created by that lens, not the blur!

SS is correct. It's the quality of the blur. Sometimes people have stated that bokeh is the same as shallow depth of field which is not correct.

Bad blur=Bad bokeh, but it's still bokeh.
From http://www.wlcastleman.com/equip/reviews/aps-c_port/bokeh.htm
The site shows examples of several Canon lenses, including the 85 1.2.
"Bokeh (Boke) is a variably defined property or concept originating in Japan that has come to refer to the pleasing quality of the out of focus (blurred) areas of an image related to factors including spherical aberration and the shape of the aperture opening. Smooth, uniform, "aesthetically pleasing" blur is referred to by many photographers as "good" Bokeh whereas background blur which shows evidence of "ugly" shape and structure is "bad" Bokeh. Articles by Bob Atkins and Harold M. Merklinger on Luminous Landscape provide more detailed technical information and examples."

Yep. You got it. The quality of the unfocused areas vis a vis the areas in focus.

Your previous posting on this subject shows your misunderstanding of bokeh.

Well, golly, I'm sure relieved that we have all misunderstandings about the "B" word finally clarified...just like "art"...and "beauty"... And "the quality of mercy"!

And I don't need UHH advice - my wife always lets me know which one is bad and which is good.
