(MKII Version) Its a Good lens. very compact, Focus speed contrary to some reviews seems ok. Images have no noticeable vignetting (Maybe very very slight at F1.7 ( Maybe??)). Chromatic aberration at the edges at wide open is very well controlled. Wide open sharpness is very good (almost unbelievable for such a small lens) Image distortion is very slight, some may not notice it especially out doors but you can detect it on small interior rooms/housing shots where there are a lot of straight intersecting lines in the shot (Its very slight only). as with all Fast lenses, you need to be careful shooting into the sun. Some ghosting and flairs can appear in shot and this lens does not come with a hood. Overall. A lens that punches well above its pay grade.

This lens has given my dated Panasonic GX1 an extra few years of use. Lens is sharp and 20mm can be used in most situations. Am learning to use arms and legs to zoom.

This is an old but great design from Panasonic. Images are sharp. It focuses slightly slower and noisier than modern lenses, so poor for video, but it is not a problem for photos.

I wanted a fast lens to take pictures of family and friends indoors, using available ambient light, and it performs beautifully! So far I've mainly shot pairs and groups, but found for individual portraits I've wanted something a little longer, like the Olympus 45mm. The 20mm is also great for street shots, even wide open, and enables me to shoot from the hip. The size makes it (jacket) pocketable and a convenient, unobtrusive kit.
This panasonic lens delivers great photographs in a very compact package. With a focal length of 20mm (35mm equivalent 40mm) and a maximum aperture of f1.7 makes this lens great for indoors and other low light situations. The only negative I can muster is that it does not do HD video. If you are looking for a MFT prime lens this is a must consider option.
