Cons: + AF is a tad slow

Pros: + strudy build + great colour + low distortion, even at 'wide' angle + clear viewfinder image

Summary: It's momentarily my only lens for E-620. But no regrets at all. Ideally I would have preferred a 4x zoom, from 25mm - 100mm (35mm equivalent).

Cons: A bit slow AF, at least a wee bit slower than I had expected (in normal to good light) Also, in low light AF can hunt sometimes, or get even slower than in good light. Not a "first choice"-lens for sport shooters, in or outdoors... Visible distorsion at wide end.

Pros: AF is very "spot on" when found, and mostly it is up to most expectations.Read: in "everyday shooting" it works very well. Sharpness, contrast, colour richness and correctness are all very good. Build quality is very good. Distorsion still not especially disturbing.

Summary: Sharpness, contrast, richness of colours, all are of a high degree. Build quality is second to none at the price, and nearly up to many of the Super High Grade lenses Oly offers, as well close to some of Canons L-offerings.Very good indeed, although it is not "all metal". Still, feels very solid and instills confidence just upon taking it in your hand, off or on the camera... Very well desined handling wise, perfect grip and well placed and designed zoom- and focusing rings. Not too heavy in spite of the nice and solid build! Least, and not too important (maybe?)... this lens is really a "looker" ;-) I use it on a Olympus e-620.
