Certainly the new 45mm and 75mm f/1.8 glass is exceptional, complementing the camera very well in this format.

When you try one out - get someone who really knows the camera to show you, because a casual shop assistant won't know a quarter of its capabilities or how to use them.

A couple of good impressions:
