    • Simply delicious images
    • That's fine and my clients love my images
    • Nice sharp photos with excellent images
    • It's a very sharp image!
    • It produces great quality images
    • The kit zoom lens was fine, and the images I got were fine
    • No image stabilization, so a little tough to steady with HD video.
    • I don't know how they managed to get f1.7 in such a small package3) Wonderful image quality
    • The images are good, color is good, sharpness, etc
    • The Canon is a great lens and ultimately will give you better pictures in good conditions just because of the better IQ on a larger sensor... but with the Canon I'm always worrying about flaring and losing contrast, and I know that I should stop down to 2.5 if I really want a sharp image
    • If you are a micro four thirds video shooter I would say this is a must have for a nice sharp image.
    • If you are looking to get only 1 prime lens for your micro four thirds system , I think this is the one...nice size..nice price...nice images
    • For example, I need 1/100 of a second or faster shutter speeds for crisp images, even with IBIS while free standing
    • The images are sharp without distortion or any visible artifacts
    • The great image quality more than makes up for those quibbles
    • That is, if you want sharp images
    • Truly amazing images from my
    • Crisp images.
    • I appreciate its amazing image quality.
    • It is light weight, fast focusing and produces good quality images
    • But getting great images in less than ideal circumstances was not so easy
    • the EM-5 it focuses fast and the images are sharp everywhere.
    • Very small, inconspicuous, with great image quality
    • , I have no problem shooting wide open and nailing sharp images
    • The images are fine on either camera, but the lens functions better on the G1, for some reason
    • Kit zoom lenses almost never produce those great images
    • It's turned out great images when doing interviews.
    • I use a B+W MRC UV filter on it, which more for protection than for enhancing image quality.
    • Yes, you'll lose a bit of contrast with the sun going directly into the lens, sure, but it's never enough to make a image look bad
    • There are some excellent sample images on flickr if you still need convincing
    • A fraction of the size of full frame portrait lenses, it delivers sharp images with great bokeh and a satisfying depth of field
    • F/2 offered a slight improvement in image quality with the Olympus and Nikon both but again the Olympus produced a sharper image across the frame
    • , I have no problem shooting wide open and nailing sharp images
    • Along with taking razor sharp images the focusing of the Olympus 45mm is very fast and nearly silent
    • The extremely high image quality and very fast focus speed along with being able to produce images with a shallow depth of field make it a must have for anyone wanting to shoot portraits
    • This is a superb M 4/3 lens
