Random watch + general pics with m43

I thought I'd create this thread to show some "live" pics from watch meet-ups that I've attended. Meaning, there really wasn't much (any) time to stage the shot.

The dual purpose is to mention that all my pics are taken with a m43 camera (usually my Panny GX9) with either a vintage Vivitar (Komine) macro or the Voigtlander 42.5mm f/0.95 manual lens. And that the m43 system is very, very flexible.

N.B. The APS-C and FF systems are also very capable systems. There just doesn't seem to be many photos taken with m43 bodies.

Thanks for indulging me.

Really like the tone and focus separation. Any one of these with the f/0.95 wide open?

The 2nd and 3rd Hermes pics are wide open. A few others might be (the Lange and Doxa?) but the Voigtlander doesn't provide any EXIF data so I have to go by memory. 🙁 Lovely characteristic "soft and dreamy" Voigtlander rendering.

Just demonstrating the low light flexibility of the Voigtlanders. This one is with the 17.5mm f/0.95 lens.
