You shouldn't ever test Olympus lenses on Panasonic bodies and vice versa: I have both cameras and I noticed that purple fringing is never corrected when you put a lens on the body of another brand. My 17mm looks terrible on a GX9 and so when I put the 15mm on my pen F, but if I switch bodies and lens images improve dramatically. No M43 manufacture really fixes CA in the lens and they mostly use software to correct the problem, unless you pick a VERY expensive lens, like the 1.2 lenses from both the producers. At "relatively" low budget the 75mm 1.8 is the only lens that really stands out, together with the pro zoom from Olympus that really only show minimal sign of CA.
I have both S 5614 and O 4518 O Look really good on small camera like GF series,toy camera outlook with crazy bokeh which can easily surprise everyone, look okay on GX , really bad 👎on G7,G9,GH5, (like a fat guy with a small …) So I won’t take to pro shooting job S look good on both GH5,GX..even okay on GF (its quite small w/o the hood) S has stronger Bokeh,but I think that len should compare with O4512/p42512 and will win on size n price performance ratio 👍🏻
I have had the lens since release, still enjoy it!
very good!!!!
Useful review
Good video. Both the panasonic and olympus are great lenses for their price i have them both.
Thanks! I agree ;-)
Ditto.
i did decided for Panasonic 42,5mm testing it now
I think Panasonic is a very good choice, but more expensive.

"weighs" not "weights", which is a plural noun.
thanks :)
