Hre's a couple of shots with Olympus 12mm and 45mm lenses. Both shot from same distance.
Hmmm... maybe I need a 25mm........

Olympus 12MM

Olympus 45MM

Yes, the 45mm to me is sometimes "too much" the 25 is just right for me. but.. in the end its what works for you. Enjoy

Aeromirage,

Thanks for posting your comparison -> pictures are always worth a thousand words!

For additional comparisons for those looking for additional X5 lens, YouTube has numerous videos ->









There are countless others.....

They are nice shots, thanks for sharing. It really depends on how badly you want to get those close shots at a distance, but the 12-25mm lens seems to be popular from what I've seen.

Yeah I agree, there are a lot of source material to test out other lenses. It definitely helps with the purchasing process.
