This is not my cup of tea but I thought some people may be interested in seeing this type of rendering.

The smooth bokeh is very interesting and attractive. The flower is sharp enough and the OOF background is nicely indistinct. Beautifully suited to this type of picture.

 

Better here than in portraits, IMO. My personal preference in portraits is for sharp images.

These portraits are sharp (to me anyway, but I'm not chasing sharpness at all costs). I'm no expert by any means, but it seems to me that the resolving power of the lens is high enough. I guess what makes them seem unsharp is the low contrast at wide-ish aperture.

Ely Cathedral, looking suitably mediaeval today.

Thambar, no filter, f2.2 ISO 1600, Leica SL

The wrong sort of lens for Cathedral interiors, but hey, it was on the camera anyway.

I'm using the lens mainly for flowers of late. Here's a couple of the famed military orchid (Orchis militaris) that show different characteristics.

 

This is without the filter at F9, I think. The morning light was already quite harsh by the time it reached the flowers around 9am (they are located in a fairly tight glade) so the background is quite busy and looks like I've gone a bit overboard with the clarity slider (which I don't use).

This is at around F5.6 and mounted on the goggled Macro Adaptor. It was also taken earlier when the light was more shady and flat (my preferred light for flowers of this intricacy). It was also before the sunlight had burned off the delicate coating of moisture on the petals and sepals.

By the way, if you are interested in this orchid, I highly recommend reading Ted Lousley's account in his Wild Flowers of Chalk and Limestone of his rediscovery of it at this location near Marlow. Also Jocelyn Brooke's mini-masterpiece The Military Orchid is a delightful read.
