SUMMARY
Indonesian photographer Gary Wiryawan evaluated 11 Micro Four Thirds lenses specifically for portraiture, comparing options from Panasonic, OM System, and TTArtisan. The OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko Digital ED 75mm f/1.8 Lens was noted for its exceptional background blur, a characteristic that continues to make it a top choice for the format. The comparison also included classic lenses like the Panasonic LUMIX G 20mm f/1.7 II ASPH. and the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 45mm f/1.8. Wiryawan's testing method placed all lenses in the same environment, revealing how wider focal lengths include more of the scene while longer lenses emphasize the subject and background compression.
