I just bought the 14mm 2.5, had been thinking about it for a long while. How many of you out there have and enjoy that lens. Tell me about you experiences with it and how well you like, also what type of photography you use it for.

I like it.

It's small and light, fast focus and the price was right.

I think the maximum aperture could have been a bit larger (f2.0 ?)
But hey, at the size and price point it's still more than a stop faster than the kit zoom.

There's the corner CA issue on older Oly bodies but it works fine on my GX1.

And lastly it's one of the all-time classic "equivalent" wide angle focal lengths.
