Thanks. I have my share of the more traditional "sharp" lenses in the m43 and x line-ups. but fell in love with the compactness of this lens, its simplicity (one aperture, two focus settings), and its FOV. That said, I have many photos that are very, very sharp with this lens (am admittedly not a pixel peeper or test chart reader, and realize others have different requirements). It is not at all a "LOMO' lens, and is great to shoot with.
