I find myself shooting more and more with the older Olympus DSLR cameras like the E-1 and E-620. Since I love 50mm equivalent lens for my street photography I thought it would be great to get a 25mm lens for my E-620, and the Olympus 25mm F2.8 pancake being the smallest Four Thirds DSLR lens matches it very well. I have had this lens before so I am familiar with what the lens can do. The lens has very simple optical construction, but the performance is a lot better than expected. The autofocus is fast and the image rendering is quite impressive - very decent sharpness and technical flaw control. I foresee myself shooting with the Olympus 25mm pancake lens more from now onward, and I also wish OM Digital Solutions and Panasonic would release more modern pancake lenses for the Micro Four Thirds system! We surely need MORE pancake lenses!

Hi Robin!
ReplyDeleteI just got my em5 mark ii with the ttartisan 25mm f2 last week! Im so excited to start my new hobby. I tried to do some photography around the park near my house but I felt so awkward and shy using the camera lol. Can you give me some advice? Oh, and while I was taking some pictures and walk around, I was followed around by some weirdo! T_T How do you choose the time and place around town that is safe aside places with many people? I cant really bring friends cause I dont have any..
