I think you will love that lens.

I have both the Olympus 25mm f/1.8 and the Olympus 17mm f/1.8, and the later gets used a lot more than the former lens does. Both are excellent lenses, but I just find the focal length more useful. It has become my "most used lens."

It is great for street shooting, landscapes, and group portraits. It is a good choice for event photography too. It is very useful for travel photography. And it works pretty well for interior shots in poor lighting.

I think you made a wise choice.
