Great portrait lens

Apr 17, 2013

For the micro four-thirds format, this lens does an excellent job with portraits, producing razor shop details at the plane of focus, and good soft focus behind and before (bokeh). Highly recommended.

Zoom out with X5.

Dec 8, 2017

Stock 15mm lens is very wide view. This 44mm lens will focus in on subjects. I can see my downtown area from 20 miles away at my house. I use with Inspire1pro and OSMO pro, fits the X5 camera gimbal.

Solid Lens for a Solid Price

Nov 28, 2015

Great lens for the price. Very sharp - super small - perfect for the micro 4/3 approach. Build quality isn't up to some of Olympus/Panasonic's other more expensive lenses, but that's to be expected.

Excellent Focus

Jun 8, 2015

Very clear and responsive. Only thing I did not like was it was not really smooth to put on. Very tight and a bit of a scraping sound when putting it on taking it off. Other than that--great glass.

Very good lens... Mostly

May 26, 2015

Really sharp lens wide open and close f1.8. As you stop way down though, your image will soften. Not too bad. And there is a little vignetting at f1.8. Overall though... a really good budget lens.

Nice prime lens

Jan 23, 2012

Very nice lens to get a shallow depth of field with nice looking bokeh. Quite compact, works nicely with my Panasonic GX1. It does require a little more force than normal for attaching to the GX1.

Great Lens!! Small and Compact!

Jan 3, 2014

Great little lens. I am very pleased with the sharpness of the lens. It is pretty fast and therefore, does a great job with low light. I am using it on my Olympus OMD Em1. Great little prime lens.

Essential

Jan 8, 2015

this 45 is one of the two or three Oly primes that I feel are essential to your kit. great focal length, great image quality, perfect for walking around and isolating subjects in the environment.

This is a good deal

Oct 29, 2017

I've just started to use the two lenses.The pictures are very sharp, focusing is fast and precise. The set was well priced and included the lenses, hoods and pouches. B&H delivery was very good.

Nice lens

Mar 3, 2014

This is a nice lens. It's sharp and fast focusing. The only thing that bothers me about it is the plain plastic build. But the price was good and the pictures are great so it's still a keeper.

A must have for m43 owners

Nov 7, 2011

Very fast autofocus on the E-P3, even faster than the 20mm lumix pancake lens (which I love). It's very well made and reasonable for its price. Highly recommended, you won't regret buying it.

Amazing lens

May 13, 2016

This is my first prime lens and I have to admit that I was a little hesitant on buying one but I'm so glad I picked this one up and I look forward getting another one perhaps the 75 mm next.

Awesome isolation

May 24, 2012

This is a must buy lens for the four thirds format along with the 20mm. Only suggestion when using it wide open you might need an nd filter. Besides that super fast focus and build quality .

A game changer

Jun 8, 2012

I have been enjoying my Pen Mini alot with the kit lens, even using it for a couple of gigs. However, there is no comparison between the kit lens and the 45 M Zuiko. In a word - incredible!

Terrific!

Dec 10, 2013

Absolutely wonderful portrait lens, very sharp wide-open with just the slightest hint of vignetting (easily correct in-camera). Renders out-of-focus areas smoothly, including point lights.

Worked perfectly right out of box! Did have to balance it but was a piece of cake. Super sharp! Really happy with purchase and of course b&h photo had it packed properly. Thank you!

excellent build quality and optics

Sep 19, 2014

I use this lens on my OMD-M10 whenever I wish to limit DOF and it has nice bokeh. It is sharp, contrasty and produces beautiful colors. Everything I've come to expect from Zuiko lenses.

Amazing combo with a DJI Inspire Pro X5

May 6, 2016

Excellent lens. Well made. Without issue. Put on the inspire pro x5 and you have an amazing combination in the air. Don't forget to balance and buy a filter to do so or lens hood

Super Sharp and Good Contrast

Jan 9, 2012

Light weight, which is good for me. Use it on an E-P2. RAW file colors and contrast are very good; as good or better than my APS-C SLR, although less DR. My favrite m4/3 lens.
