That looks tempting Jim, nice bokeh study.

Love the Penguin(s) too Leady, nice break-off from the penguim que - feels very sharp where it should be.

My seem stuck at F/1.2 too, here are two examples:

+1 for Leadys 2nd penguin! Great focus again.

Find it really hard to nail focus regardless of method (matte, AF-confirm, Liveview) - of course more so for anything moving. Hit ratio is really low How do you people do it?

Rokkor 58 F/1.2 (heavy crop ~50%) - one of few with good sharpness.

Seems like this should be named the Rokkor 58 f/1.2 image thread.
I recently joined the 58 1.2 club - hoping this lens would deliver rich portraits. I'm not disappointed! Here are two taken last weekend at the NYC Rockefeller Center - taken at f/1.2 of course!

newbie question: is it ok to crosspost in different threads, e.g. "NEX Images Thread" and "ROKKOR Normal-ish Image Thread"?

I'm pretty new too but from my point of view yes - particularly if the images are of that quality

Often there's a dedicated thread for something. On occasion I've posted a couple of images in a such a thread, and then crosspost one of them in e.g a more general thread. I dont think there are any rules but common sense is present among most FM:ers and I've rarely seen "image spamming".

-- my cents

What aperture Phillip?

Stunning shot, amazing sharpness!

Edit- Whoops, just read, f2... I guess that is quite a bit more DOF than a full frame? Anyway, fantastic shot
