Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is small lens. That's its main claim to fame, not the speed at f2.8, nor the focal length, the equivalent of about 35mm in 35mm photography. But on the small Olympus PEN body, this lens gives you a small package that takes quite good pictures without messing around with a zoom. In particular, it works well as a walking-around street camera, much like an old Leica or a Canon rangefinder of the 1950s/1960s. (See also the optical viewfinder which has image lines specifically for this 17mm lens.)
I tried this package out, camera, lens, and viewfinder, and got a good number of excellent images walking through crowds of people downtown. It's wide enough to catch people in their immediate environment. The camera is unobtrusive and really helped with the casual picture taking. I'd strongly recommend the setup to folks looking for a forgiving digital imaging setup with modern features but much of the ease of handling and casual ability of old rangefinders (without having to focus of course).

M. Zuiko Digital 17mm f2.8for EP1. (1). In order to use the E-P1 with ZUIKO DIGITAL lenses, the Four Thirds lens adapter (MMF-1) must be mounted to the E-P1 body.Note: When using ZUIKO DIGITAL lenses that are not high-speed imager-AF compatible using the ?S-AF + MF? auto focus mode is recommended.
