brittany clinton – September 12, 2020

Great lens so far. Bought it as replacement for my Olympus 7-14/2.8. The Olympus 7-14/2.8 is an amazing lens, but I found it more useful when doing serious work, but a lot less for walk-around. It was big and heavy (in m43 standards), would not take normal filters, and the adapter for 100mm square filters for it was decent, but required gentle handling. Finally the bulbous front element always made me worried I would bump it into something.

The PanaLeica fixes pretty much everything I didn’t like about the Olympus lens – it’s smaller, much lighter (just a bit over half the weight!), and takes 67mm filters or filter holder adapters. It’s the perfect walk-around lens, esp as it is also a little longer. Build quality seems really good – it may be half-a-step lower than the spectacular build quality of the Olympus PRO lenses, but it still feels very well built. Metal constructions, extremely smooth zoom and focus, and while the front element moves with zooming, it moves inside the barrel, so if you put a clear filter on top, you can assure no dust will go in. The “price” you pay – is that it’s only 8mm wide, not 7mm, and that it’s 2.8 only @ 8mm. Personally I find that a reasonable price to pay for what I get. If I need faster lens in the longer range, I can switch to other lenses.

In terms of image quality – I have not yet stress tested it – but it seems sharp across the range even wide open. AF is fast and accurate as with all modern m43 lenses. It is also parfocal. Finally – as I use it on Olympus (EM1II) I was a little concerned of potential issues with purple flaring as with the Panasonic 7-14/4. I’m glad to say I have not encountered such issues yet, despite aggressively shooting into light sources…
