I fully understand that this is subjective and can be a personal preference that differs from photographer to photographer, but if you are asking me to recommend a focal length to learn and improve in photography, and have something versatile and flexible to use in almost all shooting conditions, this new M. Is it that new camera engine which makes those ugly noisy (unnutural looking noise) ISO 200 images ?It gives you that little extra bit of protection, which is always more than welcome when you’re out on a hike or in drizzly weather.

I care how a lens works under those constraints…how it reacts to processing, how it holds up under regular conditions. Compact and extremely well-built, it features similar high-end resolving power and shallow depth of field characteristics of the renowned M.MPB will also keep you informed about the status of your gear at every step of the way and the whole process is carbon neutral. also has super-fast AF performance making it great for things like street shooting and other fast-moving subjects. I tried to shoot a wide range of subjects, including environmental portraits, headshot portraits, close-up shooting of various subjects including food, as well as a bit of tight landscape.

Very fast (and silent) to focus, pin sharp, accurate colour and tonal rendition and great element coating, meaning that shooting into the sun is not a problem. In fact the only time I remember seeing this kind of contrast level was when I was shooting with the Olympus M. This "high standard" lens makes up in sharpness and low/distortion/CA for the tiny amount it lacks in speed. The Pro would on occasion reveal more detail in the finest areas…but I just can’t say it was enough to sway me one way or another.

I agree with the review done on this page, there are not many on the market relatively accessible and quality options.

Also, keep in mind that if you’re happy manually focusing, you can pretty much mount any lens onto a m4/3 camera with an adapter. The AF system is also very fast with no hunting, taking well under one second to sweep from minimum focusing distance to infinity. My only concern with that lens is the focusing issues, especially when shooting in low light conditions.

It doesn't feel fragile and because it's heavier then the 45mm, it feels quite substantial for a lens this size.
