Portraits

Few recent natural light portraits shot using XT2, used Helios-44M for the first two and canon 100L for the last two

Very nice portraits indeed, and the Helios is easily catching up with (or even surpassing) the canon 100L.
Giving slightly better backgrounds, I think.

Images don't have any exif info, so unable to gauge shutter speed.
There seems to be something like a tiny shake or movement blur in all but the third image when pixel peeping to the extreme.

Beautiful. I love the natural light and natural look.

Thanks Bharat...yes, the Helios produces nice BG.
I have added basic exiff details for each frame. you are right, #3 is not track sharp due to camera shake.
