The softness only works at the wider apertures so these were shot at f2.8. I have'nt done anything other than resize the images. A tripod was used and the focus left unchanged, only the softness increased from the second to the fourth. I used a paeony, which is quite a soft, feminine flower anyway in my opinion.
No soft effect:
Setting 1 of 3 softness
Setting 2 of 3 softness
Setting 3 of 3 softness
You can use intermediate settings as there are no click stops.
This is the first time I have used the lens for other than baby pictures.
EP-2, Tamrom SP 70-150 f2.8 with soft focus, f2.8 1/500 ISO 100, tripod, in-camera sharpening switched on. There was a slight, gusting breeze, which has caused some repositioning of background foliage between shots, although care was taken to minimise such effects with the actual flower.
