Thanks for sharing Ian, I feel the same way...

E-P2 + 20mm f1.7
1/500s f/3.2 at 20.0mm iso200


Cheers

Anyone have a pic of the 20mm mounted on an E-PL1?

Thanks! It looks great on the E-PL1, a nice natural fit from a design perspective, IMO.

Does anyone know if the constant clicking/aperture hunting is an extra drain on the camera battery?
Or is this something that happens in most auto lenses, but you normally can't hear it?

I can hear it (albeit much more faintly) on the 14-42 as well. Which body are you using?

I don't think it'll have too much of an effect on battery life....

You hear it on the kit Oly 14-42?

I'm using an E-PL1.

Yes. The sound is much fainter, but I can just hear it.

It's a great lens, but I actually prefer (and use more) my OM 50mm 2.0 macro. But if I need to go wider indoors, then the 20/1.7 is indispensable. It's a good lens, it's just not my ideal focal length, but for anyone who likes that focal length, it would work wonders!

It's a great walkaround lens.
