Panasonic Lumix G 20mm F1.7 ASPH Lens Review

 

The Panasonic Lumix G 20mm F1.7 ASPH was announced earlier this month as the natural companion to the compact Lumix DMC-GF1 Micro Four Thirds camera, alongside a Leica-branded 45mm F2.8 Macro (the camera is also available with a 14-45mm kit zoom). The...

Extremely small size and light weight - the perfect match for the E-P1 and GF1 ; Fast maximum aperture ; Impressive image quality at all apertures ; Good build quality, proper manual focus ring and non-rotating front element

Comparatively expensive (at least at launch) ; No lens hood

The Lumix G 20mm F1.7 ASPH is a lens that we've been looking forward to seeing for real ever since Panasonic first showed a mock-up back at Photokina 2008. The good news is that it's been well worth the wait - the 20mm is an excellent lens, especially...

Great Lens

 

I am still learning about my camera and lenses. I\'m probably not the best person to listen to as far as how useful this lens is. I know I have been able to get some great shots I couldn\'t before. I really love how small it is and how sharp and clear...

Great pancake lens

 

This lens makes a very compact system with a small body like my Olympus E-PM1. It is so popular with Olympus users given in-body stabilization that lets you enjoy small lenses like this. Not so great for portraits with this focal length on MFT with its...

Compact, sharp, fast prime

 

A great, fast prime for travel because of compact design. Equivalent performer to full size DSLR lenses at a fraction of the size and price. One of the stars of the micro 4\/3 format.

F 1.7 is amazing for indoor pix and great background blurriness. I strongly recommend it.

Great lens

 

Just bought this lens to complement the Panasonic 14mm pancake. This lens clearly takes better picture with improved bokeh. Probably will keep this lens on the camera the majority of the time.

Good buy, no regrets.

 

The lens arrived today so I took out right away to try it out. So far I am quite satisfied with the results. The photos came out sharp and the colors accurate, I just find that you can hear a faint sound when the lens is focusing. For me this is not an...

great lens

 

Great lens. Only thing that might be better is the leica 1.4 lens but the size is about double and so is the price so overall, this can\'t be beat.
