E-P2 and Zeiss Planar 50mm 1.4 QBM

[raid]

I used my Zeiss Planar 50/1.4 (for the Rollei SLR system) on the rather old Olympus E-P2.

A few days ago, I used the E-PL1 and the E-P2 early morning in near dark conditions. I have posted separately my results with E-Pl1 with the Summilux Panasonic 25/1.4.

These are with the old Zeiss Planar 50/1.4 on the E-P2.

This lens has a great reputation (at its peak time) of being a great normal lens overall. It is compact and not very heavy. A great match (say) for Reala film if you prefer to use film. Using it on a M 4/3 camera results in a crop that uses the center part of the image, similar to a 100mm perspective, which is a good length for portraits.
