After reading many reviews, I wasn't expecting much from this lens, however the results are actually pretty good. Used it for the first time at a wedding, takes a bit of fiddling round to get the exposure right, but the results are pretty good. Ok, it's not pin-sharp around the edges and as you would expect, there is a fair bit of distortion. For me, the lens was about being able to pop my Panasonic GX1 in my pocket and take it anywhere. Just one thing to note, if your camera uses electronic aperture controls (like the GX1), you cannot use aperture priority to preset camera to f8, it simply will not allow aperture.to be set. Instead, use shutter priority and set to 125 and adjust as needed. You may also need to set your camera to shoot without lens as it will not detect the lens. All in all, a great, cheap, fun lens!Read full review

This is the joke of the Decade. A lens cap with a damned good little super wide angle lens that pops out at the flick of a switch. I love the way it does actually pop out. I hadn't really noticed until late on. I had a lot of fun with this. I know £89 is a lot for what it is but it saves me spending several hundred for a lens I won't get a return from. Makes a E-PL5 almost pocketable but it is very light-weight and I don't expect it to survive any rough stuff. Would look decidedly daft on the Pen-F but I will try that tomorrow!

I like the fact that the lens is so slim. This makes it easy to slip camera into pocket. It is all plastic casing but feels sturdy.

The lens is actually good for the money. I needed somthing wider that my 12mm (24 equivalent) and this will be a great carry round lens for landscape and architectural shots. I didn't want to pay big money for occasional shots, so this is ideal and sharp enough.
