Value For Money

This lens is currently the cheapest ultra-wide angle zoom lens available for the Micro Four Thirds system, costing around £450. The closest equivalent is Panasonic's 7-14mm f/4 lens, which retails for around £830. This lens provides a wider angle of view and a constant maximum aperture of f/4, but isn't collapsible like this Olympus lens.
