"I use this mostly as a macro lens in conjunction with the ring flash. It does a stellar job with that, especially with flowers. I have also been happy with it as a portrait lens for indoor use; for outdoor portraits I prefer my 35-100 Zuiko zoom lens."

"I am an avid amateur photographer and have found this lens to fill most of my needs. Although this lens is a bit heavy, the quality of craftmenship is very apparent. The image color quality is outstanding and it maintains detail out to the image margins even at 12mm. Good macro capability as well."

"Love the clarity, love the 2.8. The wide angle gives me the ability to shoot a larger area closer and make the shots more interesting. For shooting groups of people it is wonderful."

"It provides outstanding sharp photos at long distances; with the f2.8 stopping action (surfers; shore objects from a ship a mile or two off shore). I have used it at sporting events and have even used it for some astronomy work (great for the moon)."
