Incredible use of the character of the lens and effect of the shallow DOF!

Forgot about this thread:

42.5/1.2 PL wide open on EM1. I have no hesitations shooting this lens wide open up close or focused at infinity. The glow around the moon is due to atmospherics . . .

Here are a couple with the EM5 II and the Nocticron at f/1.2. Both inside with natural light.

Are these really wide open? The DoF looks qua large. Beautiful face in the first picture, but the cleavage is a little but to much.

Yes, both are wide open, but are also cropped. I was about 6 feet away in the first and 8 to 9 feet in the 2nd. The wider dof is the big advantage with the Nocticron vs. my D800 and 85 f/1.4. Being twice the dof of FF, I can get the whole face in focus, unlike the 85mm f/1.4 where the nose or one eye would not be in focus at the same distance.

The right arm is crossed in the first, compressing the cleavage a bit. Bianca is all natural, except for the tats.

Aha, the distance explains it. Bianca certainly looks stunning and sexy, so maybe you have some other pictures of her, if they are taken at f/1.2 of course

Noct 42.5 on GX8 - I've actually started stopping down for ridiculous sharpness, so I should probably start opening her back up

I don't think I posted these here... Taken with a Nikon D7000 and Nikkor 55/1.2 AI.

SOOC, no post work. I like the more natural muted colors in this one.

Here's one. I don't usually use such wide apertures, but I like how this one came out... although I think the focus should have been maybe half an inch further from the lens.
