That bokeh looks lovely! I think the focus is a bit off though, was that your doing or the lens?

The bokeh is quite interesting and rare!

, just little leveling clarity on LR, especialy the first picture. but basicaly this lens have a strong focus and good bokeh, it can looks at picture number 3,4,6 i didn't edit the level of clarity, just give it a little grainy things.

Nr. 1 is great.. love the colors, and the look on that man's face.
I love the atmosphere in photo number 2!
Somehow reminds me of my time in Singapore

Taken on an EPL-1 with a PK-to-m4/3 adapter from rainbowimaging on you-know-where. I attached the lens to the adapter via a Pentax M42 to K-mount adapter ring.

No, I believe they're at either 5.6 or 8. That's generally where I tend to shoot.

It's a great lens!

The glass might be yellowed, but that's pretty easy to fix. Just wrap it in aluminum foil (shiny side in) and set it in the sun for a few days.
