At a Glance

On Micro Four Thirds, the 85 mm focal length acts like 170 mm on full frame, so the framing is tight. The f/1.4 aperture gives short shutter times and shallow depth of field. Focusing is manual only, the aperture is de-clicked, and the body is weather sealed. Distant landscape views are a natural use.
