Something doesn't look right to me on some of these photos when viewed full size. On the model pictures, I'm not seeing the fantastic detail and sharpness that I've seen from the sample pics in the various E-M5 reviews, where each pore and fine facial hair are discernible. When viewed at full size, the skin and eyes on these pictures look kind of rough.
I would guess that it was related to aggressive compression and/or noise reduction, but the JPEG's are pretty large, and I see the problem even on the low-ISO images.
I was very fortunate in getting to use this lens, and having the delightful Helen & Samantha available to work with. The image quality is excellent, with the wide aperture combined with the focal length, producing wonderfully smooth out of focus effects.
Viewing RAW files at 1:1 resolution shows all the skin detail you will ever want and in the real world will have many models asking for post processing on the majority of images 
Even with the limited time availble to me to play with this new lens, I feel it will soon become considered as a classic.
