The Helios 44 lenses are known for their unique image qualities, the most prominent being the swirly, out of focus, backgrounds it can create. With Micro Four Thirds cameras, a lot of the swirly background can end up cropped out, leaving only a minimal amount of this effect achievable on an M4/3 camera. This lens, however, has many other image qualities that can make it a useful addition to a Micro Four Thirds shooters collection of lenses.
