Let the photos begin!

Here is one of my earliest digital photos. It remains one of my own favorites and makes me really truly miss this lens and my Olympus camera.

E-P2 1/60th @ f/1.7 ISO 800

Thanks Andy

I'm just trying to show the versatility of the lens

to tell you the truth, sometimes I just wonder why I should bother with anything else

(PS - this thread reminds me of Brian Mosely - not sure why?)

I've seen this before, so gentle, calm, tones and color are just wonderful.
It's a keeper. And as I don't own the 20 any more I'll just have to be jealous
and put up with all this good stuff....

Cheers,

Just to show that the 20mm f1.7 is good in the hands of anyone

Here's one taken by "the waiter" last October in Spain - A Russian Restaurant on the Costa Blanca - you should have seen the "black windowed" cars outside

I'm the good looking one in pink, (for AzPete!!), and my wife is in green - it was a really good meal and the staff, all from Russia or nearby, were great

(by the way, that's not a paunch - I must have just be breathing out slightly)

When i had my GF-1 i did once say (and i meant it) that if i could only have one camera and one lens it would be the GF-1 and the 20mm f/1.7. This still holds true today but it would be the E-PL2 and 20mm f/1.7 which is pretty amazing after all the lenses that have been through my hands.

God Bless the Panasonic 20mm f/1.7

I, too, love the versatility of this lens.
