WANTED putting the 25mm Pancake feelers out

[Ianf]

Hi, just seeing what sort of prices OLy users are looking for their 25mm pancakes ??.

And of course are any for sale ?

Don't have the Olympus 25mm pancake but I am thinking of selling my Panasonic 20mm f1.7 pancake. Would you be interested? It's faster and by most accounts, a better lens.

I think I paid about £90 for mine off a different forum, I can check.

Ha, it was £82.10 including postage.

Ffordes have them for £139

Sounds very reasonable for a "walk about " lens

PM sent re the 20mm

I bought it to give my boy a tiny prime on his DSLR rather than the kit zoom 14-42, and the f2.8 is helpful.

Panasonic 20mm f1.7 pancake is for micro 4/3s, I was assuming you were looking for a 4/3s lens?

Hi Ian
I have one. I have only taken about 150 shots with it and would be willing to let it go for £80 inc P&P. There are a couple of marks on the glass, one is visible in the second photo in the bottom left, but they don't appear to affect the images. The last shot below was taken with the lens in 2011 and was one of the last one's before I put the lens away.
