Hello Forum,
Here are some shots taken from my other favourite Hexanon lense: 85 f1.8.
In my eyes the Hexanon is not only usefull for portrait, but also for landscape shots.
Location was the Bavarian country side: Kallmünz, located in the Bavarian Jura (hills) and beginning with the picture of some special birds on a tree: the Bavarian Forest around Hirschenstein with foehn vivid visability to the alps. (computer translation...)
By the way: The birds are red crossbills.
Teh camera was an Olympus E-P5. I use the magnification on the screen (no EVR) to focus.

Excellent lens, I like mines a lot too, what version do you have EE or AE ? I think EE due less contrast visible on pictures.

The Hexanon is an AE version. The lack of contrast is maybe caused by a lack of a lens hood.
The 85mm f1.8 is always in my camera bag.
