Like it! You still have that lens? It seems amazing. I'm trying to decide what m43 lens to get next but I'm still pretty content with the olympus 45mm 1.8 as my main lens..

Thinking about the Sigma 56mm to get some additional reach and weather sealing though.

thanks,yes still got, but need to learn how to use it,Its not easy changing gear with confident

some recent shots

Beautiful photo, but greens are typical emerald toxic greens instead of natural foveon greens. This is why I love images from Fx3 sensors compared to any bayer sensor. Colors are almost good, whereas with fx3 they are just right. It is obviously subjective, but somehow fx3 images are just right without any finagling and extensive color grading.

I used to grade my raw D5000 files into "film" look, but it would take me hours. With foveon it is just adjusting exposure and maybe color balance sliders. That's it.
