Played around very quickly with my girlfriend and some lighting setup, one SB-800 in a soft box hand held by my brother and one tri-grip reflector held by my self.

Problems? Anything specific? I think the lens is great for an ultra-wide zoom. I have some posts somewhere in this thread with that lens and Iike it for what it does . . . especially inside churches.
In the meantime, I haven't posted much here lately but here's some recent walk around stuff.

What sort of problem? Flare? I don't usually like to include the sun in my photos but when I do I try to move around a little bit to minimize the effect of any flare. If I find the flare objectionable I wouldn't take the shot.
The lens does not take filters but with an ultra w/a lens I don't like using filters, and I really like the graduated filter tool in Lightroom.
I do like this lens a lot as it reminds me of the Nikon 14-24 that I had and liked.
Did my annual cast member shoot for my wife's HS musical. Was very pleased how they came out this year, and the OM-D + Panasonic 35-100 was absolutely stellar. Made me truly appreciate how awesome a lens this is, and how accurate CDAF is for single shot work. In all my years I used DSLRs for this, even with the 1 series, I'd often have several misfocuses due to the dim ambient light I have (in order to keep the background black). Today: Not a single miss. The image quality out of this combo today was easily on par or better than what I got out of my 1Ds II with 100L. These are always all converted to B&W, but the ones I liked better in color, I'm keeping in color here.
These are all with the 35-100 except for the fourth one, which is with the 25/1.4.
I just went to the noodle bar in Toronto a few weeks ago, as I really like the New York restaurant. I was honesty underwhelmed by this iteration. Good, but not as amazing as in NYC.

Nope not Momo. It's a place by Ryerson University call Santouka, a Japanese Ramen chain. The tasty looking bowl cost 16 dollars before tax and tip and the pot sticker were about 1 dollars each. A rip off when just a block away there's another Ramen place where you can get Ramen with extra pork belly and a tea egg thrown in for 11 dollars, and the soup there (to me) was better.
My take on Ramen in Toronto is that it's a bit of a strange thing. People would wait outside in the cold and pay quite a bit for food that really in asia is like fast food.
