Olympus 75mm F1.8 lens, it is superb.

Simply magic, this 75mm F1.8 lens from Olympus is a truly unique lens.
There isn't anything in full frame lenses that compares, if there is then please let me know.
This is a lens I've been wanting to try out for a long time and now I finally have the chance, I've spent a few days shooting with it and now "I want one"
Hope you like the video and the images I've captured.

Not only is it a fine portrait lens - incredibly sharp - but a fantastic event lens, especially in low-light settings as can be the case for performances, presentations, and receptions. It was an amazing achievement for an early MFT lens, and it still stands out today.

It certainly is unique, didn't have enough time with the lens before I had to return it but will look into it more further down the track when I get the chance. Cheers.

It's my go-to lens for concert photography, alongside the Sigma 56mm f/1.4 and 30mm f/1.4

[@pictureworldphotography]

Sounds like an awesome set up, the 75mm is a very nice lens indeed and I've read and watched a lot of very good reviews about those Sigma primes. Cheers.

One of my favorite lenses!

[@pictureworldphotography]

I can see why, it is a very special lens. If money were no object I would get this as well as some more M4/3 lenses but I'm going to concentrate on our Full Frame gear, it's getting too expensive keeping multiple systems, I will still be reviewing other systems. Cheers.

[@kimc5750]

Tell me about it. Over the years I have M4/3; Nikon; Canon, and Fuji. I need therapy! I have kept one M4/3 camera and a few lenses. It has all been purchased pre-owned before the insane pricing hit used gear. I mainly feed my Canon 6D, most of those lenses however were from Film camera days.

It's nice to own lots of different cameras but we find we don't have enough time to use 2 full frame cameras let alone the other 4 we have, so we are downsizing to just the 2 Full Frame cameras and we also have two point and shoot cameras that I have down reviews on and have very little value on the 2nd hand market so we'll be keeping those. It is an expensive hobby but one that my wife and I very much enjoy. Cheers.@@kimc5750

There is nothing comparable in other formats. I've candidly shot a Lenny Kravitz concert on a Pen F with this lens from within the audience. Such a great setup!

[@pictureworldphotography]

Yeah I haven't seen an equivalent in any other format, like I said very unique lens. Cheers.

What you think of this vs the sigma 56mm f.14

[@pictureworldphotography]

That's a lens I would like to try out, I've heard and seen a lot of good things about the Sigma F1.4 primes, someday I'll get to try them out. Cheers.
