Thanks for sharing your experience with the 42.5/1.2 and your recommendation.

Great looking photo.

While I appreciate your suggestion and based on a little research I agree that the 56 f1.2 lens is an outstanding lens, I am reluctant to change systems or carry an additional camera. What I do ...

Ken, Since I have the 42.5/1.7, there is no urgency if I go the used route.  Currently there are no 42.5/1.2's for sale on FM, but as you indicate they do become availability periodically. I ...

Gary  - I do not have enough time to rent a 42.5/1.2 lens.  I am trying to make a decision by tonight because BH Photo has a promotion if I order today, they will send a $150 gift card. If I do not ...

Julius, Quite a recommendation --- Thanks for your input.

Ken, Thank you for the sample images comparing the two lenses.  On my monitor, as expected the image form the 42.5/1.2 is superior to the 42.5/1.7. Decisions!!! Decisions!!! Decisions!!!

I had the Oly 45/1.8 (now my son is the proud owner of that camera). Because I shoot with a GX8, I thought that the double image stabilization would give me better IQ than the 45/1.8. I think both ...

I have a 42.5 1.7 and thought that it's IQ would it be closer to the 42.5 1.2 wide open. After using the 42.5 1.7, I suspect that it is not. I have read user reviews of the 42.5 1.2 on BHPhoto ...

Great time lapse.

Excellent photo - so sharp!!!!

Try carrying equivalent lenses with a FF setup and compare the weight difference.

They used a G7 for the sample shots and the EPL-1 on other tests.

I agree with Albert; to my taste the exterior photos need  more PP.  The photo of the bar scene looks great just as you posted.

Very nice sharp photos.

Great looking photos.

Make sure all your wife's programs that worked well on Windows 7 will work on 10.  If they do not work, you may one unhappy wife.

All your photos of very good, but the last one is my favorite.

Great set of photos.

I bet you wish you had a 500mm lens when you took the photo.
