Oh so fine
This was my Christmas present to me. I love this lens. So far I've taken it to family get-togethers and museums. The most challenging was the Charles River Museum of Industry. Very busy backgrounds and a very wide range of lighting conditions let me take the lens through its paces.

great lens, great price, great pictures!!
this is a great lens!!! I think its better than the 14~42mm kit lens I have for my E~510....got a $15 adapter and both have worked just fine for me....I rather prefer having this lens on versus the 14~42 digital lens...

Great all around lens
I have only used these lenses for two long weekends, and took hundreds of shots. City shots, nature, night shots, portraits. I hesitated buying them a lot given I have the 12-35mm Panasonic Lumix already. It was worth it.

An All-Around Great Lense
The M.Zuiko 25mm f1.8 is an all-around great lens and should be the first one you purchase when you get the OM-D M-1. The clarity, sharpness and speed of focusing are superb and it is super light sensitive.

Crisp
Easy to use, prime lense for micro four thirds cameras. Auto focus, with a manual focal ring. 25mm, though that converts to 50mm on a 35mm format camera. Perfect for portrait photography, bringing a dramatic quality to your shot when using the manual focus ring to create bokeh.

A perfect match
Fantastic lens and a perfect match, aesthetically and in terms of results for my Pen F camera. I recently used this combination in a low-light situation and was very impressed with the results. The lens produced sharp and detailed images.
