I love the Zuiko 55 1.2 - beautious bokeh and silky-soft highlights wide 
open. I'm not sure what it does when you slow it down past f2 - probably 
as good as any other Zuiko ;) By far the best $165 super-fast lense I 
have ever used (the only one actually).  Not the sharpest lense, but a 
gorgeous overall look.
