The other end of the scale is the 45mm or 42.5mm Olympus and Panasonic respectively. I would have to try both to see what the differences are.

Hello

I have both lenses and am working on a comparison IQ between both .This should be ready tomorrow or the day after. The test will comprise images comparing both at several apertures

Personally I should a LOT of models indoors ( hotel rooms) and I find that the difference in focal length in such instances is bigger that one might think

when comparing prices do not forget that the Panasonic includes the hood and the Olympus does not and this is a must have accessory IMO
