I have resisted buying this lens for so long, then Wex's 10% off deal came along and I could not resist any longer. It is the most incredible lens I have ever owned, build quality is superb, it's solid, very compact, with smooth manual focus ring.

Durable; Great Picture Quality; Lightweight; Metal Construction

Great metal construction; Feels very well made; Extremely sharp

Distance readings and MF switch / choke would make this even better

Simply put, we're big fans of this lens. Having used it with a variety of Micro Four Thirds cameras over the years, from the pro-grade Panasonic Lumix GH4 to the cheap-and-cheerful Olympus PEN E-PM2 , we're confident in proclaiming it one of the best in the system.

Will deliver excellent shots in nearly all circumstances. Aperture controls the DOF and leaves everything else unaffected. I do know a slightly better lens (the Zeiss 135/2 APO) but that one is for DSLRs. From that point of view, I won't even call it expensive.

Optically close to perfection; Excellent IQ

This lens is amazing. Although large for an m43 prime, it's still astonishingly compact for a 150mm equivalent lens. Compare it to a full frame long prime and it's no contest. On top of that, it's blisteringly sharp starting from f/1.8, and is actually one of my fastest focusing lenses.

A wonderful lens that is tack sharp, creamy bokeh and the perfect focal length for outside portraiture. I love walking and taking photos of my two children, this lens is perfect for this as you need a little distance between your subject and the camera in order to make the most of it.

Its price is pretty reasonable among the store I have viewed. It worked... For a week. Not the quality I was looking for. not very pretty, but they have plenty of use Five Stars does exactly as intened

I've taken the best photos in the last 5 years in the last two weeks I've had this lens. Sharp edge to edge wide open this thing is awesome. Perfect portrait lens if you have enough room. Built like a tank this thing is solid. Buy it or buy the kit with the 45mm.

A wonderful lens. Together with the Nocticron by far the best m43 prime. Better than the 25 f1.2. Cannot be replaced by, for example, a 40-150 f2.8 Pro, as the Bokeh is lightyears better. If you have the money, buy it. You will never regret.

Optically close to perfection; Beautiful colors; Just perfect, not over-saturated; Relatively small and unobtrousive; Ideal for stealth portraits; Wonderful mild and smooth bokeh, One of the best I have ever seen

AF could be faster; Focal length in some situations a tad too long (not the fault of the lens); Lens hood not included and sold by Olympus for an obscene price; I bought the generic hood from JJC for half of the price; Perfect match

I have been debating whether to go to FF or APSC sensor size due to DOF and low light performance of them. This lens I bought used through Amazon (seriously like new at 2/3 price). The result I love so much that I am keeping my MFT system.
