Sublime
i'm an amateur for sure but some of the best photos I've taken over the last 5 years have been in the last 2 weeks with these lenses. Sharpness is great. 45 is plastic but still super solid. 75mm is a tank... love it. Love them both. The 45 rarely comes off my Olympus OM-D EM5ii. I also have the 12-40mm 2.8 pro but the 45mm is by far my favorite. With all the extras and the extreme value of this bundle you can't go wrong.

Great Lens
For anyone who enjoys an 85 or 90mm prime on a full frame camera, this lens does a great job on m4/3rds cameras. I use it the GF1, GH2 and E-PL3 with very good results. In a different class from the Pany and Oly kit lenses, and faster focusing than the Pany 20mm. Overall, this is best m4/3rds lens I have, and the best buy when compared to the others. I use it mostly for portrait shots and have really enjoyed it.

Great short telephoto!
I love how this lens looks and feels on a silver OM-D! The construction and finish are top notch, and the image quality is as well! Having a 90mm equivalent F1.8 provides great DOF control and low light capability. I am very happy I got this lens along with the Panasonic 14mm and 25mm... couldn't ask for a better trio of lenses (OK, the Oly 12mm... alot of $$$ for that one!). Get this lens, you won't regret it!

Can't believe how small this thing is!
Well built even though it is made of plastic rather than metal. Unlike the kit lenses that have plastic mounts, this guy has a metal one. It is very small and light weight. It has an extra tight fit to the body and talk about sharp...this lens lets you see the blood vessels in the eyes crisp as can be. Can't ask for any better images: rich color, sharp as a tack. Extra fast focusing...BAM, it's there!

Fantastic Drone Lens
This was a replacement lens for my DJI Inspire 2 camera drone. My original lens was the unfortunate victim of a power line collision. This lens is perfect for aerial photography where you want relatively close-up shots without actually getting too close to buildings or people. Quality design, precision optics and a reputable vendor that promptly shipped my order. I am very happy with my purchase.

Great portrait lens from Olympus!
So, I have been adding lenses to my OMD-E-M1 and this is the latest one I purchased. This is a great lens for portraits. I love the telephoto view and the photos are clear and sharp even wide open. If you want a lens that makes your photos pop then this is a great lens for that. This lens is light and portable so no reason not to carry it around with your gear when you out and about. Just get it!

Lots of bang for little bucks
I wanted lens with shallow depth of field for my Panasonic G5 camera. I took a chance and went with the Olympus 45mm f/1.8 that is supposed to be compatible with the Panasonic mirrorless cameras. It works GREAT! Love the shallow depth of field and fast AF! I also found it is great for low light. It is very small so carrying this extra lens is no added burden. I would highly recommend this lens!

Super sharp lens at an excellent price
What can I say, this lens is a great M43 lens to have, I can shoot wide open and photos are super sharp, works great indoors in low light or any other type of shooting situation. This lens and the Pan 20mm F1.7 are my two favorite lenses in my kit. For a lens this size, the optics are excellent, the build quality is better than some of my Nikon DSLR lenses. I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THIS LENS!!!

A $ Must Buy for all Micro 4/3 Users!
I can't believe I'm saying a $ lens is a must buy but it is. The construction is great, it has great bokeh, great PQ, fast AF. I love the fit and finish. Looks great on my black E-P3. I love the bling so much that I went out and bought the 12mm lens also. Which is another great lens. The only issue I with this lens is the lack of a hood. But I'm not going to penalize this lens for that.

A tiny jewell
I laughed out loud when I took this thing out of the box. I knew it would be small but this was rediculous! However on close examination I was very taken by the quality of construction. On the camera focus was nearly instant even in low light. My test images confirm what I've read. It is an ecellent image maker. Anybody who has a Micro 4:3 camera needs this little jewel in your pocket.

Versatile favorite. Wonderful bokeh.
Aside from the kit lens (which I do not use) I own the 17mm/f1.8, 60mm/f2.8 and this lens. So far, I would have to choose this as my favorite default. It falls right in between focal lengths. I am either wandering around shooting natural/urban elements or shooting pictures of clients at the salon. I am in love with the bokeh of this lens, which really stands out. Wonderfully versatile.

Flawless ...
This is a masterpiece. Sharp, distortion free, huge amount of light coming in, just flawless. Bought it for my Inspire 1 Pro drone with X5 camera and it works like a charm. Some people reports video yello artifacts with this almost tele lens, related to a badly vibrating camera mount or gimbal issues. Not in my case. Video is smooth, slow panning with no blur, amazing details. Bingo!

One of the lenses that make m4/3 great
Small, light and excellent image quality is what helps make m4/3 a viable high quality photographic system. The lens is very sharp wide open which gives a shallow DOF and makes it good for isolating a subject. It's a natural for portrait photography. The only quibbles with the lens is that it doesn't focus very close (most m4/3 lenses don't) and it doesn't come with a lens hood.

Best Deal MFT Lens
At first, I was nervous in purchasing this for my OM-D EM-5 because I didn't know how much I would use this focal length (90mm equivalent). After getting it, I did have a little bit of buyer's remorse, but it quickly went away. This lens SHINES when shooting in low light. I use it for walking around at night and it is especially good at close-up objects with its awesome bokeh.

Cost-effective, decent image quality
Totally adequate general-purpose lens. Sharp image, decent color, suitable in low light. Slight greenish/yellow color tone in less-than-perfect lighting conditions. Acceptable bokeh, although not as creamy as that of Nikon and Canon 50mm equivalent prime lenses. Olympus 12mm f2 produces better overall image quality, at twice the price! Highly recommended for the price.

Sharp, great in low light, smooth
Very glad I purchased this lens to use with my Oly e-PM2. 45mm is great for portraits, outdoor shooting, and it's fast. Getting better shots of the kids and sports now. All the reviews describing beautiful bokeh and great shots wide open are right on. I typically keep this lens on my camera all the time, but it's tough for close-ups, but that's not why I purchased it.

Sharp wide open & fast AF w/Olympus EM-5
Bought this for my Olympus EM-5 instead of kit lens. Very impressed with resolution and contrast even wide open. After reviewing about 500 images taken with this lens I am wowed by the sharpness. Much better than the other kit and step up lenses I have owned and used. (On Sony A700, Panasonic G5 and Nikon V1) Focus on EM-5 is very fast, even indoors and in low light.

Fantastic lens for 3/4
I use it mainly for portraits and I like its good sharpness and nice bokeh with wide apertures. Maybe there are other lenses which are better for portrait pourposes (I mean Zuiko 75mm) but they are also much more expensive. Anyway I have to say that once I'm back in my country (Spain) I have found it cheaper (I mean in a real shop, not in internet) than in your shop.

Amazing lens
I bought this for to use on my Olympus E-M5. It blows me away every time I put it on and shoot with it. I have used it for portraits and even as a walk around lens. I visit this park near my house and enjoy photographing the sandhill cranes. You can get pretty close and this lens did not let me down. It could focus a little closer but other than that it is perfect.

Solid lens
The lens is a solid addition to the Olympus micro four thirds collection. The focus is quick, though a bit noisy, and aesthetically it looks fantastic on the E-P2 body. Extremely happy with the lens, though it reaffirms the fact that Olympus is able to develop solid fixed focal length lenses, but still cannot achieve quality results in the zoom lens category.

Wish I could've kept this lens!
I swear this lens makes photographs of people look better than with other lens. I understand this is at least in part due to the good bokeh. I had to return it only because it wasn't multifunctional enough for my budget, and I'd also purchased the OMD and a Lumix Vario wide angle lens at the same time. But I'll eventually buy it again when the budget allows.

GET THIS LENS
If you have a micro 4/3 camera you need this lens. A great prime lens for portraits. Crazy fast focusing, super sharp, and beautiful bokeh (for a micro 4/3 lens) when shot wide open. Weather sealed and solidly built. Great value as well. Sometimes there is some slight color fringing but it's not bad and that is literally the only drawback I can think of.

Small, fast, and built well.
I use this lens on my Panasonic GH2. It focuses quickly, is sharp, and is small and light. The one negative aspect I can think of is that when mounting it to my GH2, it does not mount as smoothly as my Panasonic lenses. It takes more force to rotate the lens into the locked position and this feels a little too stiff. Other than that, it's a great lens.
