Description
This chapter breaks down how lenses form bokeh, why shapes change across the frame, and how aberrations, aperture design, and anamorphic squeeze all influence what you see. No mystique, no romanticizing, just the optics, the geometry, and the practical takeaways to help you read and use bokeh intentionally.
