I bought this lens to replace the 1.4/30mm Sigma on my Oly E3. I was not unhappy with the Sigma but thought you'd all like my pictures better if they were made with a Leica lens. Kidding aside, the images I looked at tonight have clearly shown me that even though this lens is made by Panasonic, it definitely is a Leica. They must have imported some Wetzlar virgins over to Japan or something, but the test pics of my wife are so sharp that posting them would mean instant divorce. So instead, I have one of my 13-year old daughter--the poor thing does not have THAT option, and there is some camera shake involved too. Shot at f1.4--what is the point of buying a 1.4 lens if you are not going to use maximum aperture? http://www.greatpix.eu/gallery/4253606_netUM#254474973 Nathan Nathan Wajsman nathan@nathanfoto.com General photography: http://www.nathanfoto.com http://www.greatpix.eu http://www.frozenlight.eu Picture-A-Week: http://www.fotocycle.dk/paws Blog: http://www.fotocycle.dk/blog
