Pros: Všetko

Cons: Nič

Opinion: Pod?a m?a jeden z najvydarenejších objektívov svojej doby, absolútne ostrý, rýchly s dobrou svetelnos?ou. Kúpil som v ho akcii za 150,-€, pomer cena/výkon je neprekonate?ný. V kombinácii s mojou OM-D EM5-MII mi urobil ve?a radosti pri fotení mojich vnúčat. Malý, skladný, hodíte ho do batoha a neviete že niečo nesiete. Hodnotenie za m?a : 10.

Pros: VALUE FOR MONEY, sharpness even at TA, good blur, really small size

Cons: Difficulty in finding a decent lens hood, sometimes the ring for manual focus throws a tantrum

Opinion: There have already been many words of praise on this lens, and there is not much more to add than what is written in the pros and cons, I think it is the best value for money lens ever. Having this yield at this price is really rare on any system, even more beautiful knowing the size of this lens. If you have a micro 4/3 machine and not this lens makes no sense.

Pros: sharpness, focusing speed, bright, image quality, light weight, cost

Cons: I didn't find any

Opinion: A great lens, ideal for portraiture but also perfect for other shots. Razor-sharp, compact, lightweight and with a truly incredible performance. The image quality is amazing. For me it's a great lens to always have with me. In addition, the cost is really low, in my opinion the highest marks. TOP!

Pros: sharpness, tonal transitions, skin tone, low contrast

Cons: when I find them I will update the comment, promised

Opinion: You can't have a micro4/3 camera body without having a dedicated portrait lens. This lens is a masterpiece, cheap, small, sharp, tonal passages not excellent but definitely up to the most refined palates, low contrast and therefore good rendering on the portrait. Well corrected and handles stray lights well. Vote 9

Pros: Image quality, bright, small and light, cheap

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: I use it for different situations, not only for the portrait that is his home. Beautiful close-ups even at full aperture, sharp and with a pretty good bokeh, but be careful! The subject is always in focus even at f 1.8.There is no danger of having an eye in focus and the tip of the nose out. It is also good for general landscape photos etc. Also used in an indoor gym for calisthenics. Defects.... Nobody. Used with both Panasonic and Olympus bodies
