There is one other advantage to the 50mm f2, especially if you already have the EC-14 and say MMF-3. It gives you a 50mm f2 and a 70mm f2.8 macro lens and, if you have the EC-20 (which I believe does work well with this lens), you have a 100mm f4 macro lens. And each combination will be excellent.

You can't do that with any of the m4/3 macro lenses. Plus you can attach extension tubes and increase the versatility once again. Plus each of the combinations will give you a excellent general purpose lens (in the right circumstances).
