Awesome lens, sharp and beautiful, with nice bokeh. My primary lens on my camera. Only downside is a slower focus speed, but the images that come out of it is totally worth it.

Slightly tough to attach to my EPL1, but overall this lens is fantastic. Sharp even at f1.7!

This lens is pretty sharp so far I got nice pictures out of it the only thing missing is OIS and for video it sometimes loses focus for a few seconds when taping even with the new firmware other than that cannot complain does what it needs fast lens hardly ever need to use flash and compact on my GX1

Comments about Panasonic Lumix 20mm f/1.7 Aspheric G- Series Lens:

OK. So I was a camera store in England and the proprietor raved about this lens. What the heck, its just money so I bought it.

Its everything they say it is. Small, lightweight, crisp results from the superb optics. I was curious if it would work with my Lumix GH1 (another satisfied B&H purchase), especially in the automatic mode.

And, by the rating you'll see it worked seamlessly.

So if you want a good, versatile lens, want to reduce your load in weight and size, this lens fits the bill. Speaking of the bill, it really is a value buy in my opinion. Thanks Panasonic.

Now work on improving your telephoto lens which hasn't fared well in the reviews. Move to this standard and I'd buy that too.

B&H should have a pointer to filters that fit this 20 mm form factor (e.g. UV) to protect the investment. The guide indicates they can get sticky.

I had read about how great this small, fast prime lens was, and it was even better than I expected. It has far better image quality than the kit 14-42 lens that came with my E-PM1, and can be used wide open with only minimal loss of quality. Great for low light situations and intimate shots of young children. The focussing isn't as quick as newer m.zuiko mft lenses, but the wide aperture allows for fast shutter speeds to capture kids in action.

While I don't shoot many movies, the noise of the lens focusing is definitely noticeable on video - I would recommend manual focusing if this is an issue.

B&H was fast and easy to deal with. While shipping to Canada via purolator is very economical, they are probably the most incompetent shipping option to Canada - the lens arrived in canada 2 days after I ordered it, but through a series of mishaps with Purolator, I didn't get the lend until a week later! Canadians, keep on top of the shipper or be prepared to wait a bit for your order!

Although its aperture is not as large as 25mm f1.4, its f1.7 is large enough IMO. Besides, for indoor environment, 20mm is more acceptable than 25mm. The color and sharpness are also satisfying. I like my choice.

It allow light to enter in the camera. You can take very good picture also in low light sittuations without flash need

Comments about Panasonic Lumix 20mm f/1.7 Aspheric G- Series Lens:

Great for indoor portrait photography. Beautiful bokeh. Using this for my GF1 -- since it is so fast, lack of stabilization is not noticeable. Makes the Lumix considerably more compact, and much better than the kit lens. Worth every penny.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix 20mm f/1.7 Aspheric G- Series Lens:

Now that I've discovered this lens for my GF3 I found myself not reaching for it but keeping it on my camera all the times, as a matter of fact I am selling my kit lens 14-42mm.
small and matches with the camera well also because of the pop-up flash not suitable with long zooms like 45-200mm and even with the kit lens obstructing with flash light somehow. This is a winner and well constructed.
The only con I could see is it doesn't make toast for me in the morning.lol.

This lens, the panasonic 20mm f/1.7, is the best compliment to the kit lens. I use it for everything except changeable focal length and macro. The camera is much smaller with the small lens and is pocketable to make it much more usable.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix 20mm f/1.7 Aspheric G- Series Lens:

I am commercial photographer - I wanted something that I could use on a small 4/3 system camera for casual use - Lens is fast focus and sharp
this is great for when you want quality but don't want to carry around a big camera

Since it's introduction since 2009, this pancake lens still remains a hit with micro-4/3 users. Why? because it's small, and incredibly sharp. Only downside I can think of about this lens and the reason why I had to repurchase it recently also comes down to size. My original lens had the misfortune of pealing out of my camera bag on to a stone railing like a loose coin and roll its way into a scum filled pond. That was the end of my relationship with my first lens but not my love affair with this baby. Now that I finally upgraded to my new lumix body, I wanted to make it up with her cuz, boy is this lens beautiful.

She's not the fastest AF lens in the stable anymore but this lens is still in center sharpness next to the Leica Summilux 25mm f/1.4. Her slim lithe profile and her other perky friend the 14mm f/2.5 are instant hits. Just keep them out of the hot tub.

I am new to MFT having owned Canon DSLRs and L lenses. I moved to MFT because Canon stuff was too heavy. Was disappointed with MFT zooms so decided to try this prime. It focuses quickly and allows me to use lower ISO for indoors. I am very satisfied with my purchase and the quality of both build and images produced.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix 20mm f/1.7 Aspheric G- Series Lens:

This is the best lens I've purchased so far for my E-P1. Sharper than the kit lens, good bokeh, and the size makes the camera much more portable. The only drawback is the noise made by the aperture blades as you focus (it switches from f2.8 in normal view to whatever aperture you've set while focusing). The overall image quality, however, is well worth that small trifle.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix 20mm f/1.7 Aspheric G- Series Lens:

For under $350 it is a fantastic lens. Can't complain about how sharp it is. Surprised to see very little vignetting and sharp corners on my sample - even wide open though my neighbors sample has softer corners. Make sure to test your lens if you purchase it because there seems to be lots of sample variation. Focus ring feels nice and the dual silver black color looks great.Minus 1 star for the stupid focal length (40mm on micro four thirds - 25mm / 50mm fov equiv. is better) and lack of a lens hood. [@] in Hong Kong offer great aluminium hoods with caps for $10 however.

I read many reviews for this lens all over the internet, but was totally sold when I arrived at B&H. I bought a Olympus PEN E-PL1 and wanted a 20mm lens right away. With a 4/3 camera there aren't many choices out there, so I ordered this one. I think it will be the only lens that stays on the camera from now one. When it arrived I couldn't help by try it out. It is everything the reviews said, and then some. I know that the lens is expensive, but with ordering it from B&H and all the duties (I live in Canada) etc, I was able to save 150 dollars, not only that but it arrived in 10 days, I don't think anything in Canada even arrives that fast. Thanks to B&H for the speeding shipping.

This lens does what its suppose to do in low light conditions.

Small and sharp prime lens.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix 20mm f/1.7 Aspheric G- Series Lens:

The 20mm f/1.7 has replaced my kit 14-42mm lens on my Panasonic Lumix GF2. Its been on my camera for a little over a week and the performance is just amazing, and I don't mind doing my own zooming. It is a very fast lens for low light areas.. Auto focus speed is very good. So far the images are crazy sharp even wide open with some very nice bokeh.Did consider the Panasonic - Leica 25mm f/1.4, but at double the cost maybe later... For now I'm loving the 20mm f/1.7
