Distinction between 1. and 2. above

I'm not quite grasping the distinction between 1. and 2. above. In the example 'Je trouve Martha intéressante' surely this is also an opinion and as such could it also be stated as 'Je trouve que Martha est interessante?'

This question relates to:French lesson "Expressing "to find" and opinions with the verb "trouver" in French"

Hi Stewart, I also believe that the distinction is mostly a stylistic nuance.

I find Martha interesting. Versus: I think Martha is interesting.
