I hear it all the time, shallow depth of field is not possible with the m4/3 format. I think this image disproves that once and for all. This image was taken at f2.8 so not quite wide open. Manually focued on the eyes again and I think f2.8 was ideal here. If I had used the lens wide open at f1.8 not even all of the eyes would have been in focus. The longer the focal length the less DOF you have. I wonder what the 75 f1.8 is like, it must be extremely small and careful focusing will be neccessary. I'm still thinking about that purchase but I'm holding off for now. You never know, the price may come down in a couple of months (I must be dreaming).
