f you have an Olympus body, than the 17mm or, even better, the 12mm comes with the AF/MF snap-back feature.

That feature works just fine on my Panasonic GX1 (I have both 12mm and 17mm lenses).

That's interesting, I've seen posts in a lot of GX7 vs OMD discussions say that while the 17mm works great on the GX7, the camera doesn't recognize the snap back feature. I'll have to try it on my son's GX7 next time I visit him.
