Head shot of a sad boy as we walked to our car, located at the 3rd underground level parking lot of Palazzio. Again, bad lighting, but the lens prevailed (in my opinion).

Another nice DOF output. A shot of the famous Korean spicy vegetable dish.

After a brief time at the Outlet store, we decided to have dinner AWAY from the hotel/casino establishment. Our savior was the all-u-can-eat Korean BBQ just east of the strip. So, so good. Apologies for those that may be offended by raw meat, shot at a close range.

The boy was all smiles when I told him we were doing indoor go-kart racing at Pole Position. All electric. No noise. No gas fumes. Then reality hit: Minimum age is 15. I didn't bother taking his portrait, after I gave him the bad news.
There goes the shot...

The boy's mom ruined this shot while taking the escalator, back to Venetian.

Face detection turned off & focus box on the noodles. Another impressive DOF output (in my opinion). I'm sitting across the boy, separated by a small square table at the food court. Apologies for the boy's nails. He's eleven... Whattaya gonna do?

There's a colorful candy store at the Venetian Shops that I wanted to snap the boy's face. Again, nice colorful DOF. I was standing about a foot in front of the boy. Very convenient.

The main reason I bought the lens: Very nice DOF with faster focus than my old Panny 20mm, while not having to extend my arm for the money shot (when using my old Panny 25mm) on edible items. Then again, the Panny 25 is faster with (most likely) better DOF.

Given the awful light source inside the location, I didn't know how bad the jpg would turn out for this shot. Let's just say it was an easy decision to process it in RAW. Focus box pointed at the triangular pastry in the center.

Focus box on the salmon. I don't know what the green sauce that decorated the fish. It tasted great with the salmon so I didn't care. Food seems to taste MUCH BETTER when you have enuff FREE gift certificate to pay for the meal at this overpriced establishment. LOL!
Focus on the center of the calamari.

Holding the fork with my left hand, while shooting with my right. A comfortable setup since I didn't have to extend my arm for the shot. Again, DOF is very decent.

Similar to other overpriced fancy-shmancy restaurants, very dim lighting. I placed the E-M5 on top of a drinking glass to take the shot. Unfriendly ambience for lowlite photog (no flash).
