Here's one of my grandma taken with my favorite portrait lens, a 135mm f/3.5 Lentar T-mount preset. Love this lens. Fits any camera I can find a T-mount adaptor for. Beautifully soft wide open, sharp stopped down, great bokeh. Cost $15 at a pawn shop.

I haven't done any portraits with the Zuiko 75-150/4 yet but even in the architectural shots I've been doing I can see some very attractive bokeh, especially when the iS-1/2 series macro diopter is attached.

Would I snub a Zuiko 85/2, 100/2 or 100/2.8?  Do I seem *that* crazy?!?!
