Bought myself an Olympus EM-10 and Olympus 60mm f/2.8 macro lens and this is one result.

It looks a nice camera capable of good close-ups shots. If this picture is just a demo, I'd say it demonstrates realistic colours and good shallow depth of field. If you intend to print it I would suggest to take it again ensuring the doll's left hand is fully visible and sharp because it will become the viewer's focus of attention as it is on one of the two thirds. It doesn't quite work for me because the doll's right hand is right bang in the middle very sharp and so is the right leg and feet, but not the left part of the body. I hope I make sense.

The 60mm f2.8 Olympus macro lens is very light to handle and super fast in focussing. Being 60mm that equates to 120mm on a standard film camera which is just a tad too long for portraits on general use. But a very nice lens overall
