The Olympus M:ZUIKO Digital 17mm f/2.8 is an adorable, tiny lens that looks great on any compatible camera, especially the retro Olympus PEN E-P1 and E-P2 for which it was designed. Optically though, it's a bit of a mixed bag.

I knew exactly what I was getting and I was not disappointed, this is a good lens to start with and I find myself using this most of the time for a lot of different situations. I highly recommend this lens for all casual photographers who do not have a deep wallet for the PRO-lenses
This compact pancake lens sports a fast f/2.8 maximum aperture and is compatible with all Micro Four Thirds cameras. The isn't equipped with in lens stabilisation ,which is typical for pancake lenses, but Olympus camera owners will be able to take advantage of their camera's in-body stabilisation...
Performance isn't in line with expectations of what a prime can deliver
Gary Wolstenholme reviews the compact Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 17mm f/2.8 Pancake Lens for Micro Four Thirds cameras.
Very good sharpness overall; Good build quality; Lightweight; Compact; Reasonably priced
High levels of barrel distortion; High levels of CA
The Olympus M.Zuiko 17mm f/2.8 Lens is a short barrelled, flat camera lens, also known as a pancake lens ideal for Micro Four Thirds cameras like Olympus Pen etc. The lens is a medium wide angle lens ideal for panoramic views and street photography.
Excellent design and build quality; great focus
Images not uniformly sharp and give less accurate results at the corners
Das Objektiv passt zu meinen beiden Olypus EPL1 + EPM1. Der Artikel war wie beschrieben eingetroffen. Negatife Seiten habe ich bis Heute keine festgestellt. Das Objektiv gefällt, da es Original Olympus entspricht. Der Kauf ,kann ich weiterhin empfehlen. Die Lieferung war sehr schnell.
Don't know for whom is it good for. Not very sharp, not fast. Not my lens. At last, to pricey for the construction.
AF; f:2,8; cheap plastics, no hood
Pancake lenses are designed to offer a much slimmer profile than a regular lens, with just a small compromise in maximum aperture. This 17mm f2.8, then is a classic example, and the 2x focal factor of the Micro Four Thirds format means that it's equivalent to a 34mm, which is pretty much a standard...
This is a great prime lens that is very sharp and compact. At a great price this lens is really a no brainer
very small and sharp
no zoom
