I don't doubt that Venus Optics showed that they know very well how to construct Micro 4/3 lenses and it is an example to follow for other brand name producers. This little lens proves that you can design and manufacture a small, shapely, lightweight device that is also solid, relatively fast, sharp, and it comes with unique parameters. A round of applause!
