Very impressive, that looks like a very good lens. I like lenses in this kind of range, my Vivitar S1 24-48 is so useful that I could forgive it a few faults, but there's no need, it's a good lens.
I guess most manufacturers saw the popularity of this kind of lens and competition was fierce, so the good ones are very good.

yes, it a nice lens, but when i got it i thought that someone repaired it and reassembled it wrong because i couldn't set it to 28mm...until i figured it out that to set it to 28mm you have to set focus at 1m , and then you can go to 28mm, while all other focal lenghts can focus at 0.36m

Even better with the EM-5 !
I find it more contrasty and colorful.
Maybe because of the strong light of the day when you shot them ?
