Just got the call, my 20mm f1.7 is on the way :)

[Brian Mosley]

Mathers of Lancashire took my order Saturday morning, and just called me to say the lens is in (as promised) from Panasonic, and on the way to me!

First class service, and the best price I've seen for Panasonic cameras and lenses - highly recommended.

I'm really looking forward to getting this super sharp lens!

Cheers

Brian

20mm Panny lens does not make you Oly camera catch on fire!

Mine'll be here tomorrow too .. should be interesting .. F1.7 + IBIS + the EP1's legendary Hi-ISO performance = one very useful tool indeed !!!

Mathers Of Bolton ,fantastic service and prices too match.

 

[Brian Mosley]

Apparently, they've been inundated by E-P1 owners after the 20mm f1.7... hold the GF1

Cheers

I hope Oly are watching all this and taking note, their lens (the 17mm) is the right focal length but way too expensive for the mediocre performance and slow aperture offered ..

I'm picking one up at lunch time in person

I'll keep an eye out for your cameras

GF1 vs E-P1 with the same 20mm f1.7, hand held...

Hint, the E-P1 is the shot on the left for each pair.

I'll be quite happy with the E-P1 + 20mm f1.7

Cheers

Shame they're not doing GH1 kits with the lens so EP1 owners get the opportunity to get a Different and useful Panny body on the cheap with the lens ! .. (I'd love to try GH1 Vid with my 45-200 if the body was cheap enough)

Congrats.... goes off to google their website

[Buchan Grant]

....I agree completely! I just spoke to Mathers who are sending my GF1, 20mm, 14-45 and the LVF for delivery tomorrow. Brilliant service and the cheapest prices I've seen anywhere!

....Stating that the 17mm is the most underrated m4/3's lens .

I hope Oly are watching all this and taking note, their lens (the 17mm) is the right focal length but way too expensive for the mediocre performance and slow aperture offered ..
