This is such an incredible lens. The 1:1 mode gives crystal clear images. I really like the focus limiter settings to make autofocusing easier when you want to go a bit further because it does hunt a bit as it is so being able to limit its range of focusing to disregard anything outside that is a good option. It’s super light too. Definitely a great buy. I use mine on a Pen-F but would definitely like to get an OM camera with focus stacking so I can utilise this lens’s full capabilities to render terrific macro shots. The sample shots I’ve given here were handheld.

I have been a semi pro photographer for more years than I care to remember and during that time have mainly used top notch DSLR's. This lens is perhaps the sharpest and easiest to use that I have owned and coupled with my equally excellent camera, makes an awsome duo. The 60mm f2.8 is in all respects, apart from being heavy and awkward, a professional super sharp lens that not only delivers pin sharp 1:1 macro images, but superb portrait and out-and-about pictures. Highly recommended and a MUST for every micro four thirds user.

Capable of wonderful images both macro and as portrait lens. Available for around £300 second hand on eBay. Partnered with my used OMD E-M5 I've replaced my old cumbersome Nikon kit with a lightweight system which performs better in every way.

IT's sharp, it's got almost no chromatic aberration at all and its Macro function is impressive. The dial helps you get quickly from standard to Macro (since manually turning the focus ring will take some time to get there). As a normal lens, it's not the fastest out there (f/2.8) but provides an excellent performance for the MFT format and I highly recommend it.

It has exceeded my expectations, will become my main lens. It is compact and has very fast accurate autofocus

Only issue it hunts a little to chase focus. Appart from that is tad sharp and great value.

Maybe best macro lens in any system! Super sharp and small. Works well with extension tubes. My previous macro lens was a Tokina on Canon mount. That was good but this is better. I have nothing bad to say about this lens.

Excellent quality lens for macro work and as a general use short fast telephoto lens with a 35mm equivalent of 120mm

An excellent lens, very sharp when used for macro or portrait. Not the fastest focusing but excellent when locked on or in manual mode.
