I agree with everything said in this review.

It is glued to my GX8 and has the ability to do everything I need it to do.

If I had to change one thing, it would be to adapt the Oly 12-40 lens hood fastening system, and perhaps a less rubbery zoom ring, but this is me nitpicking.

Hi Darn It, thanks for the comment

Yes, the hood locking mechanism needs to be fixed in my opinion too, it is way too easy to accidentally knock the hood. I didn't really find the zoom ring to be rubbery though, but that is, again, personal preference and I can see why we might need less rubbery zoom ring

Cheers!
