Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 17mm 1:1.2 Pro incl. Lens hood

Super scherp, prachtig contrast, degelijk, lichtsterk, mooi 3D effect van onderwerpen. Bokeh het mooist bij korte scherpstelafstand en inderdaad een flinke lens. Na de aankoop meer gaan filmen want daar is de lens ook zeer geschikt voor.

Good Points: Sharp from edge to edge, beautiful colour, wonderful low light and natural light performer,excellent also with flash. I'm pro wedding photographer and my results with this lens are fabuous.

I have only bought this lens three weeks ago. My test is entirely "unscientific". Some pics I have taken of buildings at varying f-stops, the rest is simple every-day photography at different situations and light. Fully open the lens has an impressive performance. Tack-sharp throughout the entire image except for the very, very far corners. At f-stop 1.4 and 2.0 there is a very small increase of micro-contrast, and the corners look just about as good as the center. Further stopping down up to 8 only increases depth-of-field. To see the difference between 1.2 and 2.0 you need to look at 100% magnification. Working at low-light with this lens is a pleasure, sharp and blurry zones mould beautifully into each other. Simply incredible what Olympus has achieved, this lens is a gem . . . Why don't I give full marks for the overall performance? I would give it 10 out of 10, but the Zuiko 45mm/1.2 is even better . . . The camera I use is the E-M1.2.

Good Points: Superb image quality and excellent manual focus. Ease of use exceptional with lens change super fast on my Olympus OMD Improvement Points: Nothing at all, although this is not a cheap lens!

Does everything I wanted it to do. Wonderful in low light. No more stuttering to focus. Perfect for me
