Canon 85/1.2? Yes, it must be great, I just wish OM has similar one.

The G2 bodies looks to be fine constructed and very beautiful, but I don't
feel it smooth especially during focusing, the starting inertia is a bit
high, okay it may be just the sample I have tried. I also seen problem with
the lens mount too, it sometimes lock up the lens and you have a hard time
to remove it. If you change lens very often there could be a problem.
