Essential lens for any m4/3 collection

Have been using this lens for about 6 months. It's hard to explain how great this lens is. I usually use prime lenses, but this lens is really good fun. Advantages: - The smallest interchangeable lens with this magnification. 12x optical zoom. I've used lenses of the same focal length and budget for DSLRs and this lens far outperforms them in terms of image quality. Autofocus is fast and that's the best part, since m4/3 cameras mostly use contrast detection instead of phase detection, focus is always set accurately. While I think this is currently the largest m4/3 lens, it's still incredibly small and light for what it is. .- I can easily hold this lens in my hands. I use it on my e-m5 and it takes amazing pictures. With small cameras this can be a little tricky as the lens is heavier than the camera. But still doable. I would highly recommend this lens to anyone looking for long range or perspective compression. I have nothing bad to say about this lens. It comes with a lens hood and works exactly as you would expect. Aside from that, you will be pleasantly surprised by the image quality. This lens got me excited about bird and wildlife photography.
