For that price, the perfornance has to be better than the 55mm/1,2 Zuiko
;-)
Leitz anounced too, a new 50mm/1,4 8 element Sumilux lens. Biger,
heavyer and at an price you could buy an OM-3Ti with 50mm/1,2 Zuiko :-)
It should have a "good" performance wide open (at the moment, it´s not
perfect, like the 50mm/1,4 Zuiko), stoped down it should provide a more
even performance from the center to the corner (like the 50mm/1,4 Zuiko
already has :-) ).
