My first test Panasonic GH2 w/ Voigtländer Nokton 25mm f/0.95 in candlelight @ 2000iso , F1.4 and 1/25sec .
 
thanks for this. why f1.4 and not 0.95? is the candle the only source of light? I would like to know what it looks like with lower ISO....I can get similar results with my pancake and need some convincing arguments to spend 850€ for this lens...
 
At that close of range the DOF is too shallow @F0.95 to get both the candle and snow globe in focus. The candle is the only source of light and F0.95 is much faster than the F1.4 or F1.7 25/20mm lenses so you could use it with lower iso and get the same brightness. BTW the 25mm F1.4 is selling for the same price here in the US and it is not as sharp in reviews at Lenstip.com.

Someone on DPreview asked me to do a test at 1/25th shutter speed and F0.95 with ISO 3200 outside at night so I did one at that setting and another at F2.8 and 1600 ISO.
