This Lumix G 25mm is an exceptional lens for portrait or travel photography, given its 35mm equivalent length of 50mm, and the wide f/1.7 aperture makes it easy to shoot handheld in low light conditions...

Item is exactly what I expected; great quality lens

Bought this to go my lumix gx80, a really good lens for the price and excellent quick delivery.

I use this lens indoors most of the time. All you need to keep in mind - this lens has no stabilisation, that's why the price is so good comparing leica one, but I don't care because my gx85 has in body stabilisation. Very good lens, seriously.

From http://www.david-ruether-photography.com/MFT-Lenses.htm#25mm (photo samples are also there) - This compact, fast, and light "normal" lens for the MFT format performs very well over a wide range of stops (from wide open at f1.7 to a bit beyond f11).

Sharp to the corners over a wide range of stops; Low CA; Excellent for infrared photography; Compact and light-weight

None (other than for not having in-lens stabilization; but I don't find this a problem for my use

This lens works okay on a tripod but is terrible during motion on a stabilizer. The 14-42mm works flawlessly. This one just produces shaky video footage that's just not usable. I'll keep this for day/night shots on a tripod under low light conditions.

Inexpensive

Did not meet expectations

I bought this to supplement the standard lens with my Olympus OM DEM10. My plan was to use it for some portrait shots, but I haven't as yet. I have had brilliant results,though, with architecture shots- the lens gives crisp detail on subject in focus, and beautiful bokeh in the background.

Great Picture Quality; Lightweight; Simple Controls

This lens is great quality, the images from it are excellent, don't even ponder just get ,you won't regret it.

At first sight, Panasonic's latest lens, the Lumix G 25mm f/1.7 Asph, may look redundant before it's even hit the shops. After all, it's not as if there's a shortage of similar options for Micro Four Thirds. But then you notice the price – just £159 at launch – and it makes sense.
