E-M5 and 45mm Macro


Up close and personal. Find some test shots I did this morning using the OM-D and the Panasonic Leica DG 45mm f/2.8 Macro lens. Handheld and natural light. Using the built in body IS, with the lens IS turned off. All I can say is wow, the image quality is superb. I did notice that when getting near to 1:1, the front of the lens and the lens hood gets quite close to the object which is really an issue. But then again, the working distance offered by a 45mm lens at 1:1 is not great. The image has beautiful transition from sharp to blur and renders the overall image so well. On a side note, even with such low shutter speeds and high magnification, the IS seems to be doing its job really well. Enjoy.
