My wife and I decided to take an early break and flew down to Spain for a week. This is the first real outing I've had with the E-M1 and I decided to take a wide angle lens with me this time. Weather was great at 28°C, the food was great and I got a chance for some photography (at my pace). One conclusion I came to after about the second day using this lens was that my lens wasn't wide enough. I really have to get something wider because the 9-18 is an 18-36 in 35mm terms. There is of course the Panasonic 7-14 but do I really need another mFT lens. Actually no, and I was thinking about an APS-C lens for my Fuji system, namely the 10-24 f4.

The reason for this is two fold.

1. I don't have anything wider at present than the 18-55 kit lens for this system.

2. In 35mm terms it's a 15mm lens at the wide end, it's a constant f4 and has OIS incorporated.

Both the Panasonic 7-14 and the Fuji 10-24 are about the same price but the Fuji is slightly larger I believe. Only time will tell which one I'll go for but I think it will be the Fuji.
