Cons: No IOS, AF a bit slow, not weather proof, high price

Pros: Razor sharp images, best optical performance m4/3 Lence I could find.

Summary: I use it mostly for shooting my newborn and for that, it's just great. Also used it outdoor, sometimes @ night and I'm very happy with the results. Definitely prefer it from the "Pancace"... This lens it's just fun!

Cons: None

Pros: Sharp. Skin tones as used on a G3.Rich deep color saturation. 20x24s no problem, and no distortion. All creamy backgrounds. To die for.

Summary: I have a stable of Nikons and Nikon lenses. But this is the sharpest lens I have ever used. Period. Full Stop! If a professional MF camera should arrive on the scene with a full line of these Leica lenses, I'll dump my Nikons.

Cons: Sometimes generates a rattlesnaking sound on some Olympus bodies due to aperture adjustment when metering. But this is not a defect and does not damage the lens. I am rating the body at 4* only because it is plastic not metal, but it is solidly built.

Pros: Sharp wide open, great contrast, quick to focus, great depth of field and creamy bokeh. Objects pop out if you frame them properly at the right distance. Fairly silent (but not super silent).

Summary: One of the must have primes.
