? 9-18 F4....we already have a 7-14 and another one is coming.

The Panasonic 7-14 doesn't take filters. It's a major no-no for me.

The new to-be-released Oly 7-14 is gonna be huge and again, it won't take filters!

Oh...the Oly neither? Why not? I use Cokin type filters for landscapes. May be someone canmake a system that is put around the outer part of the lens.

I own the Oly 9-18 which is super small and takes filters, but the IQ is not that great.

I just wonder why Oly and Pana persist in not releasing a damn UWA prime. Yet, they can't help but relase 17 variations of the same boring lame 14-xx kit lenses.

Some of those kitlenses are truelly an upgrade but a lot are not.
I think for a viable system to attract the attention, make it interesting we need a complete line up from 7-300 mm with standard, HG and SHG glass....
