  • Olympus 7-14mm f/2.8 Pro M.Zuiko Digital ED

    10 out of 10 points and recommended
    Incredible image quality. I love the wide (14mm in 35mm equivalent terms) angle of view from something SO small.
    Some chromatic aberration and loss of sharpness at the edges of the frame.

    Given the diminutive size, weather sealing and ultra wide focal length range of this lens, I'm more than willing to forgive it the slight optical shortcomings. This thing comes everywhere with me.

  • Panasonic 20mm f/1.7 ASPH LUMIX G

    Great size! Bright! Beautiful images!
    Slow to focus, and some compatibility issues w/ newer cameras.

    This lens was my introduction to micro four-thirds. I still carry it everywhere I go.

    It is quite slow to focus by modern standards, but is still my favorite carry-everywhere companion.
