Comments about Olympus 17mm f2.8 M.ZUIKO Digital Micro Four Thirds Pancake lens:

This is a superb lens!
I recently bought an EPL-1 with a 14-42 zoom, which is good, but, this lens has turned the whole purpose of buying the camera on its head. I'm used to Canon full frame camera's with Canon EF L lenses, and bought the EPL-1 just as a "carry about" camera for anything and everything. I shoot pictures primarily for a well known image library, which my Canon's do well. The image quality of the EPL-1 plus the 17mm pancake lens have found favour with the library, who it should be said, are very fussy about the quality of images submitted. Some reckon this lens to be expensive, personally I think it's money well spent. If you own one of the PEN range, and you are serious about your photography, you need this lens!!!!!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

      Comments about Olympus 17mm f2.8 M.ZUIKO Digital Micro Four Thirds Pancake lens:

      This lens is one of the best! It produces superb images that are sharp and full of contrast even at full aperture. Its focal length is perfect or the micro 4/3 system: I use it with a Pen EP1 and that combination is perfect.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
