It can't make you look fat. 42.5mm focal length in Micro Four Thirds is equivalent to 85mm in Full Frame. It's a good focal length for portrait pictures (head and shoulders) as well as full body pictures or many other things. This is a longer focal length than that of a more "standard" lens, like 25mm or 30mm. I find 30mm (equivalent to 60mm in full frame) to be the best for general purposes, and the 30mm f/2.8 lens is fantastic.
