Thanks for looking , Chris. Some old lenses perform better than others
when paired with a modern sensor. I think this one makes the cut.

It’s great to be able to play around like that with old and new, Jim. I’m going to
get my Zuiko 50/1.4 out again and see how it performs. It’s not a stellar example, as I
remember, but it should make a decent portrait lens.

I have always been impressed by the results I got from the old Pentax
Super-Multi-Coated Takumar 50/1.4 lens. While watching softball on TV, I shot
a few images from my recliner, not worrying about being square with the
subject. I played with Exposure Adjustment to try to get somewhere near the
correct light.
I was impressed, once more, by how the lens performed on the X-T2.
