I visit a lot of old country houses, museums etc and never feel I have the right lens. If has to be fast, no flash allowed.

I tend to use the Lumix 20mm 1.7, just wondering what others use.

My cameras are Olympus e-p5 mostly with a viewfinder and Olympus M10 mark 1.

Thanks

Although I have faster and wider, i normally travel light when visiting country houses, so normally only take the tiny cheap and feather-weight Olympus 9-18, its not fast but its more than adequate on a stabilised body.

Obviously I am more interested in the space than close ups of objects.

My preferred camera strangely enough is the Panasonic GX8, as its tilting evf easily allows me to adjust the height at which I take the photo.
