I have the 55mm f1.2. Some people say the 50mm f1.2 is a tiny bit sharper, but I am very happy with the 55mm. For me, it makes very calm, very quiet pictures ...





Price - £150-200 for a good one?

Oh...it's very beautiful pictures. I have also Olympus 55/1.2 and I love it.

Thanks for the nice comments! The picture of the young couple was taken at a wedding I recently photographed - I took more than half the pictures with the 55mm and a Zeiss 85mm f1.4. The 55mm, like other lenses, is also very sharp when stopped down:

This is all from Zuiko 50/1.2, I prefer this to Nikkor 50/1.2 which is sharper
at wide open and has creamy bokeh. I like colour rendition by this Zuiko lens.

The next three shots are all at f1.2, for the last two I do not remember F-stops.

Gorgeous shots, all!

Koji, is that an Akita?

Superb shoots Koji, to show DOF on street was an excellent idea.

Thanks Attila, I started to shoot bicycles for wide open characters of
lenses. Zuiko 50/1.2 has "halo" around shiny things, which makes
a unique signature for this lens. Yes, some others do the same thing.

Ah, that's sad, the cutest pups I've ever seen are Chowchow! If I had
a dog, I think it would be a Chowchow.
