It is available locally for $250, supposedly unused. I like the 12mm wide end but not f6.3 at 50mm and the large size of lens, specially when mounted on my E-PM2. I have Oly 14-42, Sigma 19mm, Sigma 30mm and Konica 50mm 1.8

If your already using the Olympus 14-42 I would not bother with the 12-50mm, sure its a nice lens and I have no complaints, how about spending that money on either the Pany 14mm or Olympus 45mm.
