Just experimenting at the moment, because I have a few Zuiko OM Primes. A couple of quick pix to give an idea.

Piano keyboard - effectively as a 110mm lens, wide open to create bokeh.

Another 55mm as 110mm f1.2 wide.

And a more trad looking bokeh shot from the Zuiko.

All also on my flickr click thru for larger versions

Thanks for posting. I have an OM 50 1.4, among others, and am glad to be reminded about their functioning at double on these cameras.

You hardly ever see photos with the OM 55mm f/1.2. These are great photos.

The Flowers are fantastic.. These are for competition?

I'm not sure .. I think just for contemplation..

Photo was shot with my 50/1.8, but hopefully the weather will be better tomorrow, so I'll actually be able to play
with my new lens!

Weather has still been pretty bad today, so ended up shooting some
Jewelry instead

DOF is very thin, but like the effect I got from this photo.

size comparison with the 50/1.8

Lens is much bigger & heavier!

I always hear that the 50/1.2 is better, the 50/1.8 "made in japan" is better @1.8 and above etc. but I really like this lens!
(no pp, just some levels on the 2nd)
