Panasonic Leica DG Nocticron 42.5mm f/1.2 ASPH

Examples: Las Vegas Strip (Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II)

These examples were shot while walking the Las Vegas 'strip' in early January on a nice cool day with variable cloud cover for excellent lighting most of the time.

I really enjoyed shooting the Olympus E-M1 II with the Panasonic 42.5/1.2; the combination is just awesome for walk-around handheld shooting—I give the combo my highest recommendation. See my M4/3 wish list.

Examples chosen to show off sharpness across the field, color rendition and the ability of the Olympus E-M1 Mark II image stabilization.
