Pros: Construction, image quality.

Cons: Weight

Opinion: I have for 3 years this fixed light that I consider one of the "masterpiece" of the system: there is very little to describe because it is practically free of defects and has only quality, let's say that if we want the weight is not indifferent for an m / 43 lens but it is designed to match with a series 1 (or like the OM1) with which it balances perfectly; the sharpness is extraordinary up to f / 1.8 to gradually soften up to TA, but it remains a good sharpness, while on the quality of the photos it produces there is very little to say, personally I think that the color reproduction is very natural, there is nothing pumped; also the blurred is very natural even if I prefer the one produced by the brother 75mm 1.8 As for the construction Needless to say, it is bombproof, with materials pleasant even to the touch, the convenient retractable ring for manual focus and there is no lack of the FN button. For those who want to invest in the system, money is well invested

Pros: Stunning in all respects! Tropicalized, compact, build quality, collapsible mf ring etc.

Cons: Not received

Opinion: This is without a doubt the best lens of the System without ifs and buts. It's my favorite of all the ones I have. It manages to give a three-dimensionality and a wealth of detail to the file so as to be able to compete with those of the most prestigious brands. It has a flare resistance of 10 praise. Highly recommended to all those who work with photography, and demand the best!

Pros: All

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: Lens of the highest optical quality is constructive. I use it on the M1 MK3 and it is fast and accurate in focusing. Sharp even at TA has a blurry creamy and very pleasant and a beautiful three-dimensionality. Perfect weight and size for the M1 series. The arrival point for those looking for the m4/3 portrait optics. Highly recommended. Rating 10

Pros: Color, sharpness, detachment of planes, three-dimensionality, construction quality

Cons: nobody

Opinion: Beautiful goal. I use it a lot in the video field with gh5/gh5s for the straits, details and close-ups in interviews. Returns almost vivid files: sharpness, micro-contrast, and color make the view of expressions and textures almost tactile. In the photographic field (my hobby and its peculiar use of design) by huge satisfactions in portraiture (I use it with m1 mkII). This or the Lay? Good question.. but without an objective answer

Pros: Constructive quality. Quality lens, you can't ask for more.

Cons: From addiction

Opinion: Excellent lens, amazing build quality. You can't ask for more. Sharp even at full opening, it allows you to get a quality bokeh. At f2.2, 2.8 and 4.0 is a blade. Who seeks quality in the m43 system, this is a lens to have. My basic travel kit is this lens paired at 10-25 1.7. There is little to discuss for me is in the top 3 lenses of the m43 system.

Pros: Sharp, metal construction, blurry

Cons: No one believe me

Opinion: Here olympus has made a masterpiece, a lens that really has no flaws in particular. It's sharp already at 1.2 even at the corners, it's made of metal and it's tropicalized. It does not suffer from flares or aberrations, nor given the focal point of distortions. I'll show you better in this review on youtube:https://youtu.be/AD7ofRFN7qk

Pros: Sharp, light, minimum focusing distance, tropicalised, price.

Cons: Do not have it.

Opinion: First impressions, construction at the highest levels, fast autofocus and precise even in low light conditions, sharpness and microcontrast in areas of exceptional fire, the best of my pro objectives, very soft and pleasant blurred. TOP Objective. Objective that does not make you regret having passed from FF to m43 I recommend the purchase.

Pros: Weight, f1.2, sharpness, blurred that does not distract, high definition

Cons: nobody

Opinion: Optimum lens as per tradition Olympus, a defect I think you can not find it, possibility of cropping enormously the file thanks to the high amount of light that passes and the high resolution for which it was studied. I also had the '85 1.4 Nikon on d800 and I think, indeed I am sure that this lens beats him from many points of view, starting from the constructive level! Rn
