The 17mm's actually an F2.8 lens, right?  I had the 20mm/1.7 with my
Panasonic G3, and if there had been even a smidgen more macro capability,
I might have put up with the G3 long enough to switch over to the OM-D.

Is it me or are most of the images a little out of focus?

Most seem a bit soft, but it may be due to motion blur in some cases. Based on 
this small web-size sample, I'm certainly not blown away by the lens, but I do 
enjoy Derby's photography. What's not to like about pretty girls?

Derby,
I have to agree with Paul and John.
Images are a bit soft, out of focus?
Not up to your usual standards.
Is it you or the lens?

And I have to agree with the three of you. My best piece of photo gear 
is the X key on Lightroom, and I should use it harder. The lens is still 
a beauty, I promise.


Thanks for looking

Love 'em all, especially that last one!

You could be shooting with a plastic lensed disposable camera and you'd very 
shooting all winners, Derby. But that is an impressive looking lens...
