I've been shooting Hasselblad Full frame digital since 2012, and I've been wanting something different to add to my camera kit. Tried the GFX, X1d, SL2.  Nothing really spoke to me for portraits until the S system.  Really excited to continue investing on this platform.  It may not have all the bells and whistles of the latest and the greatest, but it keeps things simple, gives me a supreme portrait, and makes me happy. 

+1! (and most of the S-lenses have soul...). Out of curiosity, which S-body do you use?

I love it too. Best or second best in the system with the 120mm...good for keeping it simple and not drawing much attention to the lens itself. I tend to use it more for photos of nature than people, but it clearly excels at that, based on what you have shown.

The Elmarit 45 has become my "walk-around" lens.

Just came back to the S system (again) a month ago. Felt the same for images from SL2, GFX, and X1D. Thanks for these AMAZING images. Going to find an S 45 now. Cheers.
