You don't own this yet?

I'm always hesitant about making large dollar purchases and this was no exception. I read just about every review on the web before I decided this was the best choice. The reviews were true. This lens is fantastic!
My older brothers each have a Canon Rebel XTi and a Nikon D60. Each have lenses with similar zoom range and f-stop values as this one but both of them were very impressed when they tried it out. Even complementing about how it felt better than theirs (certainly not like them to do so). I've directly compared identical subject shots between those lens/cameras and this and my e-510 and the difference is always clear. This lens consistently produces sharper and more vivid images.
When people say they keep this lens on all the time that's kind of a given. The zoom range works perfectly for every day shooting situations. But when you add in the low f-stop and quick focusing (along with the great price) then it's certainly not one you want to keep in your bag. I sure don't! I love this lens. It's another reason to buy an Olympus DSLR. |

Better than prime lens?

This is a dream lens. It is built beautifully, balances well in the hand, delivers tack sharp images and focuses very quickly and quietly. It is a quantum leap over the kit lens which feels loose and plasticky by comparison.
How strongly do I feel about the image quality of this lens? I just returned a 50 ED macro Digital Zuiko lens that couldn't hold a candle to the 14-54 in anything other than pure macro photography.
Definitely one of the best lenses I have ever owned. |

Best $$$ I've spent on lenses!

Pros:Durable, Rugged, Fast focus, Fast autofocus, Sharp Focus, Weather proofed, Easily Interchangeable, Strong Construction, Easy To Clean, Lightweight
Cons:None so far
Best Uses:Close-up photography, Wide angle, General Use, Sports/Action, Upgrade, Portraits, Landscape photography
I replaced the 14-45 kit lens from my E500 which I have been using on my E3 and is a good lens. But WOW, this lens is super!
At this price cannot be beat. Best feature to me is the manual focus mechanism s "direct" compared to the "wire focus" on kit lenses. Next, it focuses so much more quickly and precisely in automatic focus mode.
The distance scale on the lens barrel is a big plus also. I enjoy close-up work and this lens focuses to within under 9"!
Being weatherproof makes it fully compatible with the E-3.
It also does a super job of controlling lens flare.

Make great walkaround kit with E420

| I use this lens with E420 and makes probably the best SLR+lens combination under one grand you simply can't get with a Canon or Nikon |

Does Many Things Well
2008-06-10

| Using it on an E-330 after about eight months with what might have been a below average copy of the 14-45 kit lens. Obviously better build here. Heavier but not a lot bigger. Balances well on the camera. Focus is quieter and much, much faster. Sharper throughout the range. Extra 2/3 stop at the wide end makes a difference, especially indoors. Barrel distortion is minimal. Added speed and reach on the long end make it viable for portraits. Throw in "almost macro" close focus and it's a good general purpose lens that will spend a lot more time on the camera than the 14-45 did. |
