Rated 5 out of 5 stars by 46 users at B&H Photo Video

"This lens, at every aperture, is the sharpest edge-to-edge fixed focal length lens I've ever used. Bokeh is rich and smooth."

"Very sharp, quick and accurate to focus on the E-3, and not heavy at all compared to what I already have."

"The main problem on the G1 is, the lens diameter is so large that the camera rests on the lens barrel when put down."
