  Great prime lens at a versatile focal length
  Bought this for my short trip to Italy. Having a micro four thirds camera, my lenses are all small enough for me to bring without feeling like I have too much stuff. I still wanted a lens that I could use without wanting to switch out for another lens. The 17mm (equivalent to 35mm) focal length was the perfect in-between, not as close as a portrait lens but not too wide, either. The fast aperture was great for so e smooth bokeh and low-light photos. The size of the lens is also incredibly small so it doesn't add much bulk to your collection. I really recommend this lens for travel photography, and as the only lens to bring when traveling, if you have to stick to just one lens.

  I am 100% satisfied with this lens
  I am 100% satisfied with this lens. The detail and sharpness in photographs is absolutely stunning and it exceeded my expectations. Bokeh is very good, and the color rendition for portraits is well balanced; not overly red or warm and not overly cool in the skin tones. Auto focus with this lens is very fast. It's also small enough that you can carry it around in your pocket. A truly amazong lens. I think Olympus hit the ball right out of the park with this one. You can't go wrong with this lens and every M 4/3 photographer should have one in their kit.

  I am a professional photographer.If I wasn't making money out of this I would have sold my Nikon gear and just shoot with this lens and my panasonic 20 on my olympus.It is not as good as Nikon 85 but for the size it is great and I love the colors.

  Gorgeous build quality, very good optics
  This is a very fine lens for m43 cameras. It is super small and a joy to behold and use. Construction is fantastic and the clutch manual focus mechanism is ingenious. Optics are generally very good with excellent sharpness when stopped down a bit.

  Good 4/3 light weight and small prime medium tele lens with good wide max aperture for bokeh and portraiture. Pictures are crisp and sharp with good colour and contrast.

  Just to add on previous reviews. Yes, the ring does nothing, but for the price it is great 1.8 lens.
