correction I mean Olympus 17mm 1.8 lens I'm considering buying this micro four thirds lens to use with my Olympus EM-5.
Looking for opinions from anyone who has this combination.
Didn't know they had a 1.4!
I know there is a 1.8.
Thanks. Got mixed up also looked at 2.8 lens.

Imagine the price of a 1.4 lens!

One can always have dreams.
That would be a killer lens though!
On a Fuji camera, the 23mm 1.4 (

Just sayin'
Perhaps Cdouthitt could chime in.
I think he owns the lens in question.
It was the one lens I really wanted when I had a m4/3 camera (for a brief time). I have a feeling if I got hold of one, I would still have it.
I only read great reviews like
this one.
I noticed you have the fuji X-E1. I got the X-E2 which I love with the 35mm lens and 14mm lens. Eventually it will be converted to Infrared or the EM-5, can't decide now.

Nope I don't own it...however it's supposed to be a decent performer. Had I not owned the 20mm before the 17mm was released, I'd probably own it.
