The Zuiko 9-18mm provides dramatic ultra-wide angle performance at an affordable price. The lens is compact, light and seems sturdy. Images are sharp with vivid colors.
Pros:
  • Great at capturing wide angle images, landscapes, and even portraits with somewhat unusual angles
  • It is very lightweight and portable and works well with the E-520
Cons:
  • Perhaps not quite as sharp as some of the higher end lenses but more than acceptable for the price
  • Images tend to show barrell distortion at the widest angle
  • Sometimes difficult to use with a flash indoors at the widest end as shadows caused by on camera flash are visible.

bit of a specialty lens

Very nice and compact wide-angle, but the price, moderate f-stop and focus distance limits this to specialty users who need wide-angle for scenery or architectural shots outdoor during the day.
Pros:
  • Easily Interchangeable
  • Fast / accurate auto-focus
  • Strong Construction
Cons:
  • Poor in Low Light

Olympus Zuiko Digital ED 9-18mm 1:4.0-5.6 review

Like any concept, the Four Thirds imaging system has its pros and cons. On the plus side, camera bodies and lenses tend to be very compact, but then the four/thirds aspect ratio that's in keeping with pre-widescreen viewing screens now looks dated.

For its size, the Olympus 9-18mm ƒ/4-5.6 provides impressive performance. While there are other lenses which provide similar or better performance, none offer the diminutive size and storage functionality of the 9-18mm M.Zuiko.
