85mm Loveliness covid-19: day 353 | US: GA | info | act
After a quick fix, this Zuiko 2/85 is now stunning. I really can’t believe how impressively this lens performs. If the 24mm didn’t convince me, this 85mm sure has: I am officially a fan of the Olympus Zuiko line of vintage lenses. The colors. The sharpness. The bokeh! There is nothing not to like about this beauty—and it’s so compact. And it focuses pretty closely at 85 centimeters, so the f/2 looks more like f/1.2. Look:
Color me impressed. More strenuous testing is on the way.
