It's arrived and doing exactly what I wanted - that bitingly sharp in-focus even wide-open moving to a creamy bokeh with very shallow depth of field. Been playing around briefly today and thoroughly impressed. I have just the job for this lens with family gathering next weekend but I'm afraid my children will be fed up with me pointing the lens at them by then!
Here's a couple of shots to illustrate the shallow depth of field possible.
Far better FL Ron. The 20 leaves me cold at times with its distortion, when objects are in the FOV that are known to the brain as having certain proportions, like cottages and human bodies.
Were any of you able to get the aperture ring to work on a µ4/3 body?
I just clicked the button for a blue G2 (I already have an E-P2), and would be very interested in this lens if the aperture ring is usable on one of them.
