Hmmmm,
I don´t agree about 50 1.2 bad bokeh. I also used to had one when I had
OM4T and 80% of my shots were made with it. Despite of being soft wide
open, bokeh was charming and pleasant. I send you a picture of a lovely
charming bokeh of it. Maybe you can put it in your website for Dawid
Loubser.
Regards,
Dave
