Well, I have to admit that the Pen-F lenses virus got me...

So just today arrived that little gem, which is not seen too often:



Nicely complements the 3.5/20mm - 1.4/40mm - 3.5/38mm macro I have for now.

Our member "taunusreiter" (Frank Mechelhoff) has a great site about them here:

and mentions the 70mm having a built in sunshade, but mine is external, marked 2/70

Nice, I've looked at these Pen lenses many times, but I've never had one my self. Wink
Prices are quite stiff Very Happy

This 70mm could be a nice portrait lens?

I hope you will share some samples!

+1 about the samples Smile

I saw one on the Dutch Marktplaats also, but I'm unsure if I'll ever venture into the PEN system.

They just make it very nicely on my Lumix and that's why I have them.
If I don't like them anyone, I'm sure they can be sold again w/o loss.
