In my opinion this is a great lens. It's small and lightweight, so there is no excuse to not carry it with you. The price is reasonable and sometimes Olympus gives discounts on it. It's definitely the sharpest Lens I own, possibly only rivaled by my PanaLeica 100-400mm, which is a higher prices level and hast different applications.
It can also double as a portrait lens and has further applications.
For me this lens is an absolute essential in the MFT ecosystem.
