That is very astute of you to ask that question. I have a Panny 20 mm 1.7 and a Olympus 45 mm 1.8. I did think a 12 mm for landscape and family shots would be best, but the Olympus 12 mm 2.0 is just too expensive for my pocket. And I like using primes because of their small size so I do not want to go down the road of using zooms. I think I will go for the 14 mm Panny. Wex are doing it for £269. I will probably buy new as always a bit wary about buying secondhand. Thanks to everyone for their postings on the subject

I bought it used for US$160 which is about the maximum I'd pay. And I bought it(and an Olympus 17mmf2.8) to go with my GM1 for their pancake size.  Having said that, I have more shots on the GM1 + 14mm than any other combo.

For me, on my EM10(or any OMD body), the pancake size is not as important. I'd look into the 15mm f1.7 if I have £269(+£100) to spend.
