Sometime try your long lens for some of the closer shots like the
paintbrush.  The DZs focus a lot closer than the Zs and the bokeh may
be more like what you're used to with OM.

This one is with the DZ 50-200 and is still a bit jittery at f8:

This is better even at f16 because it is really in the close focus
realm of the lens:

Of course, if you want to make it look like it's an underwater scene,
put the Z 90/2 on it and open it up (f4-ish):
