Re: Some initial thoughts on the Olympus 17mm F1.8

In reply to captura, 5 months ago

The Olympus 17mm f1.8 does what I wanted the panasonic 20mm f1.7 to do: extremely fast focusing and good performance in low light conditions. It's also a great video lens. The only downside as far as i'm concerned is the larger size.
