The Panasonic Leica 42,5mm F1.2 lens... am I the only one thinking it might actually be made for the rumored Leica APS-C camera? I mean it's big enough to cover an APS-C sensor, right?

It does cover an APS-C sensor, but the focal length would be a little odd for that sensor.

BCL-0980, fun lens and so compact for a fisheye... also, tolerances for the focus adjustment lever are tighter than on my BCL 15, quite happy about that.
A few more with the PL 42.5mm f/1.2. These are all wide open. This first one almost looks like a composite, but it's a single shot...the angle makes her look far higher in the air than she is.
Here's the Nocticron at f/1.2 again... a stitch of 41 images. Unfortunately, it's not a perfect stitch (though not too bad), but I was handheld and pivoting quickly, so it's not bad for that. Total size is 205 megapixels...unfortunately, the blur isn't super obvious at web size, which is a shame. The effective field of view and depth of field is like that of a 23mm f/0.65 shot on full frame.
