Re: On a budget: fast Vintage Wide-Angle lenses for your M43?

OK...you got me confused. You want wide angle, but talk about using a 24-28mm lens. I don't consider those focal lengths to be "wide" for M43. For indoor gatherings I would look to something in the 12-14mm range.

Not sure of any vintage 12-14mm lenses, but I had a Panasonic 14mm f/2.5 that worked great and cost about $100 on the used market. Maybe look at an inexpensive 14-42 zoom kit lens. These can be had for under $100, used or refurbished.
