These are of probably of more interest to my OM friends. I recently acquired a first generation (?) Micro 4/3 camera body to support my collection of Olympus lenses.? I was so impressed with the small size and weight of this camera that I decided I needed a small lens to match it.? I did some research and decided to go with the Panasonic Lumix 20mm/1.7 Asph.? It lives up to its reputation.? Here are a few examples: An image shot from the ground, showing details in a cropped image.? They are replacing the 60 yr old pole I pictured sometime earlier.? To me, details are impressive. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/20191009-PA090465.JPG.html Bokeh in a Fall Colors shot, wide open. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/20191009-PA090475.JPG.html One of several pencil drawings by the late Don Northcutt that grace my walls.? This is an early Swiss round barn that existed in a community south of us fifty years ago, and is framed in barn wood.? It was shot on the wall with room light. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/20191009-PA090480.JPG.html I am quite impressed with it for general use. All are best viewed LARGE. -- Jim Nichols Tullahoma, TN USA
