The rendering seems very nice with these close-ups. The bokeh of course is that of a super wide angle, but once stopped down, it's pleasing and contributes to a nice feeling of depth (3D).
Run a roll of film through a full frame camera, however. I don't want to cool your enthusiasm and I am sure that the lens will do well, but for all super wide angles (including the super expensive ones), the corner performance is the Achille's heel (and the benchmark).

@ Orio
Yes, I will try it on the Aria soon to look at the corner sharpness full frame. I agree about the open Bokeh. For me I seldom shoot wides like this one more open than f8. The main reason I bought this lens is that no one else bid more than me ($230) Already I have the zuiko 21/2 I don't expect this ML to outperform it. In all the scientific tests I have seen. The zuiko 21 is only bested by the CCZ in this focal for sharpness and better for distortion control. That being said this still looks like a nice value and a great street reflex lens.
@ Poilu
Yah Yah  no distagon 21 in my future Thanks for the charts I lost these links nice to have them again.
Attila
I plan to do a full tripod comparison outdoors in full light with both lenses. The results I will put here on the forum. June will bring our fantastic clear weather. I will be testing alot of lenses in that month. All my results will be posted. And the best looking shots will go in MF gallery. Sorry to make such a long wait for the zuiko 21/2 and 90/2. samples  |

No problem, nice light more important than anything else, in crappy weather you can't make tests this is clear to me. Many thanks in advance!
