Received the 20mm from the Japan MO and had not much time to shoot with it. Creative juice also drying up...
Anyway, the lens is really sharp even wide open!
But bokeh is nothing to sing about. Compared to a full-frame, the f1.7 bokeh looks like f2.8 or even smaller. And there's a lot of DOF even at f1.7 and so no need for critical focusing.

Sorry but both subjects are not in focus where it needs to be. Keep shooting!!
weekh, did I see u buy and sell an EP1 twice over??!!!
BTW, the bokeh is very smooth! Oh...and I disagree about the DOF. It seems quite narrow already judging that the mickey mouse hands, tip of hat are a little blurry already. The DOF seems to be centered around the dimension of the face and not more than that. That is not quite enough DOF to play around with actually. And for group shots, there is a strong likelihood that some faces would be OOF.
But you would not be taking group shots so close to them like mickey mouse above, assuming this pic is not cropped.

u strike the bulll eye.
Thanks for the feedback
#1 was cropped, cldn't help it, will try again sometime!
#2 where should the focus be?
Right on the center of the flower. Not the petals. I think it is called the stigma.
