Pros: Size, speed, sharpness, build quality, manual focus difficult to change

Cons: It lacks the scale, easy to shift the focus unintentionally

Opinion: It is my lens favorite, is perfect for the road (street and human compositions), although sometimes I regret the absence of stabilization, especially when I forget to increase the times. I kept on G1 and GF3 mainly in manual focus. G1 is nice and quiet, of G1 starts to be "big" and put a little 'of ansia.rnrnPer the street photography "quick" does not make sense to use the automatic focus, poor equally to that of the SLR. In static conditions at f / 1.7 it never fails, and often leaves surprised by the speed and precisione.rnrnLa vignetting is very visible at 1.7 but not unpleasant. Defocused 1.7 is very light, often do not notice it in the few cases where need is very small gradevole.rnrnÈ but does not go unnoticed, it is considered a real target, then on the road receives her dirty looks.

Pros: Optical performance, compactness, brightness, focus.

Cons: Panasonic should offer it more widely in a kit with the Lumix.

Opinion: I love this focal length and the fact that it was in a pancake, bright, and that is second to none has made me choose as my first optical micro kit. Ideal for street and reportage. He's doing very well with portraits and landscapes, it is a standard focal length, so it fits well in many situations. The optical performance is always of a high standard in all light conditions, in all respects and any opening. Many complain of AF, it is definitely improved but still good, it will not be the fastest but I think it is too slow to call it, is always silent and precise.

Pros: size, light weight, grade 'optics, focal universal.

Cons: manual focus without awkward scale.

Opinion: It 'a lens to have in each kit m4 / 3. The quality 'and' sorrpendente also to F1.7. And a blurry good 'excellent isolation of the subject. It 'a universal focal length that is used everywhere and for any subject. The focus manually without scale and without limit and 'uncomfortable and not very usable in low light. Perfect for Street.

Pros: Image quality, sharpness, minimum size, brightness, focus, value for money.

Cons: Slow autofocus in low light.

Opinion: I have a few weeks this view, but I was really amazed. Some advantages are obvious, such as the size (it's a pancake) and the price, what really surprised me is the quality of the photos that churns: about OM-D, really exceptional. For the type of photos that I do (portraits, landscapes and reportage) is a great all fare.rnLa focal equivalent to 40mm 24x36, it is really convenient to do a little 'tutto.rnrnPer lovers of fixed focal length lenses, this 'optics can not miss in one kit m43, it gives so much! rnrnAggiorno with a negative point for the record: actually at night, in low light, the autofocus on OM-D is a bit' slow, slower than Altee optics, it is still an excellent optics!
