  1. Daniel Rubin Jarman –

    Excellent quality

  2. Igor Mozolevsky –

    Best wide angle lens for micro 4/3. Smooth bokeh.

  3. Jeanne Gniewek –

    Quality lens at a reasonable price

  4. Howie –

    Great lens for DJI Osmo and Zenmuse X5r lens, just wide enough to help shoot interior spaces. An added bonus is it’s compatible with my Inspire 2 lens, the Zenmuse X5s.

  5. Airax –

    Perfect lens

  6. Emi –

    Very Sharp Lens

    I am a little surprised that I haven’t rated this lens already. It is my go-to of go-to lenses. I use it very extensively for video, and it is perfect. The lens is relatively small which makes it a snap to balance on my Ronin Gimbal. It is fast, I have no problem opening this thing up when needed… I certainly have no issues at f2.8 and smaller. The lens has great color saturation and sharpness… it really is just about perfect.So I have had this little guy for about 4 years and during that time it has been on my main camera about 75% of the time. Occasionally, I will film on a tripod so I’ll grab its cousin the Oly 12-40mm f2.8 (also a fantastic lens).. but that is about it. While there are some MFT lenses I prefer for photos nothing beats the Oly Zuiko 12mm for video on a gimbal (I have used it on the Osmo Pro and my Ronin with both a GH4 and Gh5).Final verdict- If you shooting video on a MFT camera and using a gimbal the Oly Zuiko 12mm is an absolute must .5 Stars

    Updated review 11/10/2015: Am less happy with this lens than originally in the earlier review. Of course the small size and f/2.0 are plusses over my Panasonic 7-14MM, but every time I use the Olympus I regret not taking the Panasonic lens. The main reason is that the results are just not that sharp. It may be because the Panasonic works with the in-camera image stabilization better, or at f/2.0 the Olympus has a much shallower depth of field, but few shots with the Olympus are as crisp as I expect. That and that I am now used to the 7-14MM view angle and expect it, make the 12MM Olympus feel like I’m missing something when framing shots.Original review: Bought this lens as a companion to my Panasonic 7-14mm f/4.0 lens because it is physically smaller and faster at f/2.0.Now I’m not so sure it was wise, in hindsight. Used the Olympus for a while with good results, but it is not as sharp as the Panasonic 7-14mm. And now that I’m used to a 7mm super-wide view, it’s hard for me to be limited to the 12mm Olympus (not the lens’s fault) as I’ve trained myself to see the world in 7mm. The speed factor I thought would be helpful, a full 2-stops faster, but my Panasonic GX7 is so good at rendering at high ISO’s that speed isn’t as big of a difference as I thought it would be.Smaller size of the Olympus 12mm is an advantage, but most mirrorless 4/3rds cameras like my Panasonic GX7 are not really pocketable anyway, large lens or small. And in terms of real world size and feel, the difference between these two already compact lenses is not something I think about when I’m going out the door. Inevitably I always end up taking the Panasonic lens because it is sharper and wider.

    A well made all metal body wide angle lense. I use it on an Olympus OM D M1 mk2 and I am very pleased with it. Compact and versatile.
