So, I was just wondering if anyone knows how to take bokeh pictures with shapes.

You'll need a bokeh camera. They're pretty expensive.

there are a lot of more high end lens that produce beautiful bokeh.

Are you talking about this kind of effect?

Isn't the 50mm 1.4 or the cheaper 1.8 good for that type of shot? I saw a youtube video where they were doing bokeh shots with the nikon and the canon 1.8

But thanks for the link fokker gotta try that out!
