Could resist it no longer. Olympus 75mm f/1.8.

Was going to say I can add no more to what has already been said by so many about this lens. But it is so good I could not stop myself.

Since my first go around with Micro Four Thirds I have wanted this lens. Previously it was still too new to be found at a reasonable price used. My favorite way to buy gear. But one showed up at the local camera shop at a price I could not refuse so a trade was on. Trade what? Not important. After a quick spin I can say all of the hype is more than well deserved.

Pluses:

Sharp. Sharp. Sharp. One of if not the sharpest lens I have ever used wide open. So much so that like the excellent film half frame PEN FT 40mm f/1.4 it is so sharp that it seems to compensate for the smaller image gathering surface.
Small and light considering its spec. It brings long portrait lens glass in a small and tidy package to an already small system.
All metal top notch build like the excellent 17mm f/1.8.
Value. Even new this price is reasonable. Try buying a fixed focal length bright aperture 135mm plus AF lens elsewhere and you will pay much more.
Versatile. No matter the type of shot if you can focus on your subject you will likely be pleased with the result.
Quick and silent focusing.

Minuses (Kind of.):

A manual focus clutch like the 17mm would have been nice.
Some have mentioned the long focal length, but Olympus makes perfectly wonderful 45mm and 25mm lenses if that is an issue for you.

No matter the price or format I have never owned a better portrait lens.

If you love portraits and have a micro four thirds camera you can do no better.

Update: Since sold the system. No issue. Redundant focal length coverage.
