Nothing super professional here... I've only had time to take test pictures of various critters around the house in sub-optimal lighting, but even so this lens is impressing me. I especially find the short focusing distance and the 1.4 useful for the hamsters, since we don't want to flash them and they are constantly wiggling around. Very difficult! Additionally I love that the bokeh balls stay really round even with the string lights in the background.
Oh yeah, the pet eye tracking works on the hamsters too, which I thought was pretty incredible. Anyways, pet-lens approved I guess
First real attempt with this at astro. I'll do more PP tomorrow when I'm less tired, but I was really happy. Foreground was 'light painted' during the exposure with my headlamp. This is a single shot,
Very nice! I've been using mine for astro a lot too

Challenging dark conditions at Culture Box club in Copenhagen. Caught the DJ at a moment when the light from her gear caught her face. Wide open from this GM delivered a surprisingly usable shot.
