Awesome lens, very expensive, but worth every single penny
1 of 1 found this helpful This is an awesome lens: the pictures are sharp, the colours vivid, the contrast excellent, the vignetting minimal (no small feat for an ultra-wide-angle lens). I use a Leica Vario-Elmarit 14-50 as a standard lens, which is still a bit sharper. But the Olympus 7-14 is by far the best wide-angle lens I have ever had, and it is exhilarating to work with.
There three small downsides, though;
- the front lens being almost hemisperical, it is very exposed and no filter can be fitted
- the lens is large and heavy (meaning sturdily built, as an upside).
- in bright sunshine, the side protection offered by the small built-in hood is minimal, and reflections are not always avoidable.
The lens costs a multiple of what more ordinary lenses cost (a well-built Sigma of similar focal length for Nikon is just 1/3 of the price, and even more or less comparable original Nikon or Canon lenses are markedly cheaper), but if you can halfway afford it, scrape the money together - you won't regret it!
