Hi guys,

Has anyone got any examples with this lens?

Much appreciated if you can post some! Had a look in the flickr but nada!

Cheers
Vlad

If you mean EF 50/1.8 Mk II on Canon, I am sure there will be zillions of samples.
I do not know a single Canon user who does not have it.

If you mean its sample taken with PEN, I tried it for a short period in Dec last year when I started using my E-P2. I did not shoot RAW with E-P2 by then. All the following photos were taken straight from the camera in terms of aspect ratio and colors.

f/1.8 - 1/30 sec - ISO 800 (it should have been wide open) - 1:1 aspect ratio from camera / B&W preset in camera

f/1.8 - 1/50 sec - ISO 1250 - auto WB

Not sure about the aperture (I should have stopped down to at least f/2.8 with an old Canon 300D) - 0.3 sec (handheld) - ISO 800 - 1:1 aspect ratio preset and B&W preset in the camera

Thank you!

cant wait to take more photos with it.

Here's another photo. It's not as sharp as I wanted it to be..

Funny the adapter is not as tall as I expected it to be. I guess the Canon EOS flange distance is short for SLR's...

Probably has to do with the crop factor of 1.6 instead of 1.5.
