Great Alternative to the Panasonic LUMIX G 20mm Kit f/1.7

I got this lens for my GF1 and it is simple as plug n play, the lens is very well build and very compact. I use it on my GF1 all the time, unfortunately there is no zoom but this is the same as the Panasonic LUMIX G 20mm Kit f/1.7, at 1/2 of the price of the panasonic pancake lens this is a great alternative buy and you won't miss much.

Great little Lens for Olympus EP-1

I bought this lens for travel - seems to have better picture quality than the standard kit zoom lens.
I like it a lot.

Very compact, but so-so image quality

Simply said: buy the Panasonic 20mm.

I found myself frustrated with the so-so image quality as others reported. While it's a very compact package, I think it's really worth spending some extra for the Panasonic 20mm lens which became the lens I use 95% of the time with my E-P1. You get much better sharpness, even at wide open at 1.7. The image quality from this lens is no better than the Panasonic lens wide open.

Wonderful lens

A wonderfully compact, clear and easy to use lens without distortion so often found in this size lens.

Underrated, tiny lens

The M. Zuiko 17/2.8 has a bit of a bad rap because people often compare it to the outstanding Panasonic 20mm f/1.7 lens. However, 17mm is very different from 20mm, and if you want that "standard wide" angle of view (similar to a 35mm lens on a 35mm frame camera) in a tiny lens, this is the one. Fortunately, it is plenty sharp, and the distortion and color fringing are easily addressed (automatically for Olympus in-camera JPEG shooters as well as by some 3rd party RAW converters). Although I use my Pana 20/1.7 more often, I enjoy using the tiny M. Zuiko 17 when I want that angle of view. It's a good little performer. You can see some samples taken with this lens here: [...].
