Olympus M.Zuiko 25mm f/1.8 ED Premium Lens Review
Olympus M. Zuiko 25mm f/1.8 Verdict
This lens is certainly capable of producing excellent quality images, with sharpness being excellent in the centre of the frame from maximum aperture. It's well built, lightweight and reasonably compact. The price of this lens may limit its appeal a little, even though it's not really an expensive lens. £300 just seems like a fair chunk of money for a lens equivalent to a 50mm f/1.8, which was always amongst the cheapest lenses available for 35mm format cameras. I suppose the field of view is the only aspect that is the same here. | Buy Online Now | |
