I'd have to agree with another post here that these aren't very sharp. I certainly wouldn't want to buy this lens from the examples I see here. Even though these are shot wide open the flowers are soft in each frame. Not sure if it's the lens or bad technique but my Leica 25mm f1.4 blows this away. The second basket shot has a ton of noise with a lot of color aberration. The third though shot at 200 ISO shows some terrible pattern throughout the image. Amazing what people will put up on this forum and boast "I really wonder if any other m4/3 lens can match this kind of IQ".  I would hope not or we'll all be in trouble.
