Sweet Little Lens

I have taken a number of really NICE shots with this little bugger ... some should be in the Gallery if you want to check them out. Or go to 500px.com/Kawhona to check out a variety of shots done with my E5. Complaints hey yes for a lens of this price you should get a hood and a little bag.

perfect but expensive

The best 24mm lens(in 35mm format)with high image quality and construction. At f/2, it is possible to shot handheld in the night. However, the lens is considered expensive. If you are a zoom lens fan goes Lumix 12-35/2.8 or 14/2.5 for much more economic choice.

less so in corners"

"The Olympus 12mm f:2 is an amazingly light and compact lens, which fits comfortably in a shirt pocket, even with the hood attached. In my tests, compared with the Pany 12-35 f:2.8 and 7-14 f:4, at 12mm the lens is as good in the centre, but softer in the corners by at least 10-15% (one step on the...

Fantastic optics, beautiful design.

Beautiful jewel of a lens! I have the 12-40 F2.8 so was hesitant about buying a focal length I already had covered. But this lens has twice the light gathering ability as the zoom and is really small so great for taking out when you don't want anything bulky.

Great lens, super fast and quiet with amazing IQ. What more can one ask for

Trying to convince your wife to let you buy a $650 lens when you already own the Oly 45mm, Panasonic 14mm, and Panasonic 20mm is no simple task. But as luck would have it (and 2.5 glasses of wine), she agreed and I made the purchase before she realized what she had agreed to. No regrets though.

Excellent Quality Prime Lens at a fair price

This lens is extremely sharp and fast. I have not had it for long, but the build feels very solid. I often use the Canon 24mm TS II & 17-40mm on a 5D Mark III, and the results are very comparable with this lens on an OMD EM1.
