CONCLUSION

Olympus Zuiko MC Auto-S - 50mm - 1.4 is a solid performer, with very nice color cast.
f1.4 is not usable in my opinion and this is not the best 50mm I tested, but far from being the worst when you stopped down a little.

A real pleasure to use, the lens is so tiny and lightweight.

Seems my copy is a little decentered as left corners are sharper than right.


Hope you enjoy
