This lens has razor thin DOF. On my Ep2 without the focus peaking focussing is extremely difficult. This afternoon I just put it on and took some portraits. Focus was hit and miss. Here one shot for C&C.

Razor thin DOF rarely produce any good, typical amateur mistake to use it , on first one fit well , nice artistic picture. Second too much like family capture , DAD said I have to sit and don't move LOL , not a good one.

Thanks Attila! Actually no instructions were given, she wouldn't take them anyway! But I can see your point from the expression.

I feel guilty as I don't use this lens as much as I would like to. In next few days I hope to use it a bit more.

I prefer the second one since the expressive eyes are visible. I also don't mind the shallow DoF, I think it works ok here.
