Hi Eric! Your three photos are fascinating!I wonder if the bokeh of the 180/3.4 APO is a bit poorer than I'd expect from a Leitz/Leica lens, because that particular lens was optimized for infinity focus. Certainly, the Angenieux shows a gorgeous, creamy bokeh, with the Telyt coming in a close second.
I know that bokeh will differ with each lens design, regardless of maker, but somehow the bokeh of the Canon zoom is what I would have expected, given my non-scientific comparisons with other Canon glass.
Thanks for taking the time to make this comparison! I, for one, found it very interesting.
