John, I'd strongly recommend visiting this site. David has some marvelous
photos taken with a Zuiko 55/1.2 - check out the portraits of the young lady
in particular.

Is the lens worth the money? I dunno. Are photos like David's worth the
money? ;^) (Answer: HELL YES!!! I'd take one.)

...A local photo dealer has a mint -minus
Silver nosed F1.2 S.C. lens fo sale. 55mm filter thread? What is the
"going
price" for this lens ? The dealer is asking about £165. - $235.
Has anyone any experience of using this lens ? I have been
told that fast lenses can give very "soft or plastic " out of focus effects
which can give very good portrait results.
