The problem with most wide angle lenses is that they are usually big and bulky.

The olympus 9-18mm dinky wide angle zoom solves the issue of carrying one around and can be easily thrown into a bag of primes.

Most of my shots are at 9 mm and you can get a good 35mm equivalent normal field of view in a pinch. Throw on a circular polariser and you are good to go for wide angle landscape photography.

Very tough to do good landscape photography with a 9mm focal length and a polarizer.
