Admiringlight is the first website that had the luck to own both new very fast f/1.2 Leica 42,5mm and Fuji 56mm portrait lenes. And he did a comparison to answer one simple question: What lens delivers the best performance?
Admiringlight writes:
Overall, the Panasonic Leica is a little bit better corrected. It’s slightly sharper over most of the frame (though the Fuji is a little better into the corners in my experience), it’s got a little smoother bokeh and better contrast at wide apertures. However, it’s definitely not a runaway. These systems have two heavyweights in this range.
Be sure to check out the full test at Admiringlight!

Oly 1.8/45mm, 260€.
If you’re photographing a wedding as a professional, I would be surprised if you’d be using the 45mm.
If you can make money with a lens, the price isn’t that bad.
This guy (professional) likes the 45 for weddings:

He’s not a big-shot, but I find his work to be quite good.
EVERYBODY wins! Two great lenses. But Fuji has a significant edge in price.
