ditto. I'm not a big MF person, mainly because I don't want to do any stop down metering, heh.
While I wait, I'm hoping someone slips out ~45/1.4 MFT that has been secretly been worked on but unmentioned on roadmaps.....

Beautiful light in that portrait!
Very nice! I've heard only great things about that lens.
Beautiful, thanks Jonas. Another legendary lens.
Like Simon, Michael, and Scho, I've been using the Nokton 50/1.5. I just took delivery of the lens/adapter, so I don't have much to show yet. Here's a quick wide open photo of my 6-year-old son Oliver with the Nokton wide open on a GH1:
Given the kind of background that will ruin a lens' reputation, I think the Nokton handled the bokeh very well.

don't let that thought get in your way with the G1 its totally transparent to the photographer.
I simply set aperture to what I want on the lens (which stops down) and use the lens as if the only difference was it was manual focus ... on P or Av it just simply works fantastically. No "mirror shapes disturbing the accuracy of metering" on this system ...
heck, even the brightness of the EVF auto compensates

if you haven't already just grab any 50mm lens (f1.8 or f2) and pick based on which lens series you'd like to get (Nikon, Canon, Pentax ...) and that will save you money on adaptors.
I picked FD because they are cheap (still) and perform well ... however I'm switching to OM because while they're a bit dearer I can use them on my EOS film camera too ... (that's where I do my IR black and white
thanks
