You can get the 12mm and 45 1.8 for less than the cost of the Panasonic zoom and have two super fast high quality primes that have faster apertures available. The amazing Olympus 12mm f/2 comes in at $799 and is MUCH smaller and sleeker and attractive than the Panasonic 12-35. This would have to be a hell of a zoom to be worth $1299 because if you want speed and high quality we have many options for less. Coming in at a whopping $1299 for a micro 4/3 zoom lens is a tad on the high side I thought.

The only issue I had with this lens when it was announced was the cost. The best thing about this zoom is that it has a fast constant aperture of f/2.8 available so you can shoot at 12 or 35 while maintaining that f/2.8 semi fast aperture! THAT IS COOL but 1.4 or f/2 would have been even cooler. This time Panasonic decided to release a high quality fast aperture zoom that offers very high image quality, sharpness and contrast along with a versatile 12-35 focal length equaling a 24-70 in 35mm format.

My soon to be Stepdaughter Katie ? Shot at 20mm at f/2.8 – converted to B&W using Alien Skin Exposure 4 – OM-D E-M5 – ISO 3200 Micro 4/3 has come a long way since its beginnings of the E-P1 and G-F1 and their slow kit zoom lenses. With the Olympus 12mm, 45mm and upcoming 75mm 1.8 we also have the Panasonic 14mm, 20 1.7, 25 1.4 and even the Voigtlander f/0.95 series with the 17mm and 25mm (offering 35 and 50mm equivalents). The OM-D E-M5 has catapulted the sales of this system higher than it has ever been and with a slew of hot and really fantastic lenses coming down the pipeline lately, Micro 4/3 is better than it has ever been and now competing with larger DSLR systems as far as quality goes.
