Q: would you consider this a wide angle lens?
A: Not really. On a 4/3 camera it is equivalent to a 40mm lens on a 35mm format. So, a little wider than a standard lens, but not quite a wide angle.
Q: Would this be compatible with an Olympus camera? (specifically, an Olympus om-d em10 mark ii)
A: yes, I have a Panasonic lens for the exact same camera and it works fine

Best Pancake for the Money!
With an aperture of 1.7, this little pancake lens will give you some incredible depth of field! It is very small, and lightweight and works as advertised. At 20mm, you have plenty of options for capturing great images. If you are a videographer with a Ronin or other gimbal, this will help with balancing and weight to allow you to hold that camera even longer. Highly worth the money for this little wonder.

Nice lense, arrived on time and well packed
This lense was a little cheaper at Amazon, but I was willing to come to BBuy because I have had perfect service and professionalism with them for years, and I wanted to be sure I was getting a real lumix lense and not a knock off from Amazon. A couple of bucks literally is well worth it.
