Pros: Optical quality, sharpness, stabilization

Cons: Price, hood, tropicalization

Opinion: Spectacular lens, change the story. Superb 85mm equivalent with 1.2 aperture, incredible for the quality of the files produced. Soft and sharp at the same time. Maybe the best I've ever tried. I really enjoyed the stabilization that works with the Panasonic G9 in an incredible way. Needless to say, the price is high, but it's a gem. I do not understand why it is not tropicalized and they used the metal hood, I do not like it. I really liked it and I made a review on my channel. What a lens...!!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BeYES4LdXwI

Pros: Optical quality (bokeh, sharpness, brightness...), construction and materials.

Cons: Price, Lens hood a little bulky

Opinion: A lens that gives images of great quality, sharp already at TA and with a progressive and soft bokeh. The construction is excellent, metal. I believe that together with the 45 1.2, 75 1.8 and 56 1.4 is the top lens for portraiture with the M4/3. Used on Olympus bodies (e-M1 and Pen-F) did not give me any problem. Faults: the lens hood looks oversized. But this is the least. The most are, instead, the over 1000 euros to be pulled out for this gem: they are not a few. So, think of this lens only if you really love portraiture and it is essential for you to shoot with the highest possible quality: otherwise better hijack the money on other optics, less specialized and more all around (a nice 35-100 2.8 or a 40-150 2.8, for example) that may also cover this necessity.

Pros: Sharpness, Bokeh, size, brightness

Cons: Hood and Fabric case

Opinion: A fantastic optics that I use with my three Olympus WCO M1mkii, M5mkii and M10mkii. It returns a fantastic image quality, with a sharpness even at full aperture excellent. The Blur is captivating considering that its 4/3 system is really hard to get it except with lenses with a aperture aperture like this. You can photograph freehand even with a non-existent light also thanks to stabilization. Here the Panasonic has done an excellent job except for the unjustifiably bulky and huge lens hood for the concerned and the absolutely useless fabric case, given the poor quality. Optics I use for the portrait but also for the street saw its brightness.

Pros: optics and build quality, made incarnate, blur, brightness

Cons: Cost?

Opinion: I purchased the used optical and I used with my Olympus M4 / 3 (OMD EM5 and PEN-F). The results are excellent especially with the PEN F, out of focus and exceptional resolution at the highest level, he does not regret a FF. extreme brightness associated with the stabilization of the PEN F (which I prefer to that of optics) allows you to take pictures freehand pretty much in the dark without having to raise the ISO 1,600. metal lens hood a bit 'bulky, equipped with cloth bag for safekeeping. Optical consigiiatissima not only for the portrait, where attention should be paid to possible defects of the skin of the subject, but also for the street (I often use these lengths for this kind). It costs a bit 'high, but according justified by the construction.
