This Olympus M.Zuiko V311020SU0 12mm f/2 wide-angle lens is ideal for shooting dramatic landscapes and street scenes in low-light conditions. The Movie-Still-Compatible mechanism enables nearly silent focusing.
The Leica DG Summilux 9mm F1.7 is for use by professionals and high amateur users for both photo shooting and video recording, capable of smooth, silent operation to work with the camera’s high-speed, high-precision contrast AF system with the sensor drive at max.240 fps. For the non-linear setting, focus is shifted with a variable amount according to the rotation speed of the focus ring while focus is shifted with a designated amount according to the rotational quantum of the focus ring for the linear setting. It also excels in video recording performance, with a mechanism that suppresses focus breathing, together with a micro-step aperture control for smooth exposure change. Comprised of twelve lens elements in nine groups including two aspherical lenses, H-X09 has two ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) lenses and one UHR (Ultra High Refractive Index) lens to effectively suppress both axial chromatic aberration and chromatic aberration of magnification. With its approximately 130g compact size and light weight, the Leica DG Summilux 9mm F1.7 features stunning mobility that Micro Four Thirds system boasts. The rugged dust/splash-resistant* design withstands use under harsh conditions even at 10 degrees below zero. The filter diameter is 55 mm, with a 7-blade circular aperture diaphragm. *Dust and splash resistance does not guarantee that damage will not occur if this lens is subjected to direct contact with dust and water.

Nice lens, quality build
On my BMPCC the 12mm is equivalent to a 35mm lens. The image quality is awesome with no noticeable vignetting or CA. At f/2.0 it is still relatively fast in low light situations. Bought the lens on sale so feel like I got a great deal for money (some rival lenses I considered and tested are cheaper I feel they are flawed in comparison. Image reproduction is equal, if not better, than some more expensive glass.

Great micro-four/thirds lens.
This lens was a perfect fit for my Olympus Pen-F camera. It takes sharp and clear photos and gives me the wide-angle option I was looking for. I am completely satisfied with the lens and with Best Buy's continuing good customer service. A great online transaction. Thanks, Best Buy!

Nice lens
Nice Pics. I just had to get used to the manual focus ring. Took some family shots that turned out blurry because I wasn't paying attention. Very satisfied
