Good, cheap, manual lens
I bought this lens to use with an adapter with my Olympus mirrorless. At less than half the price of a used u4/3 prime, it seemed like a good option for a focal length I don't plan to use too often. Even with the adapter, the lens is size-appropriate for a small body mirrorless. A bit longer than my u4/3, but similar weight and width. Images are sharp enough for my purposes. Pixel-peepers may find some softness in the corners wide-open and some purple fringing. Both can be corrected, either by stopping down or fixing in post. This is the reason for 4 star instead of 5 star. For use on a OM film camera, these issues may not be present. Various photo forums report the higher SN examples of this lens have better coatings on the glass and produce better results. I have no idea if it's ...

I have no idea if it's true, or just that the lens will be newer and likely in better condition. Regardless, find a high SN example in good condition and have fun.

serviceable after a little TLC
Clear image but rather stiff and difficult to mount on the camera. I think it just needs a good cleaning.

Not the best optics, but good enough
This is a good compact lens made for the OM series cameras (non-digital). But don't get me wrong. This little jewel can be put on DSLR cameras, via lens adapters, and use manual focus. I placed one similar on my Canon 7D and the clarity is fantastic. Granted, there are better lenses on the market at much higher costs, but not much better than what most people need for solid photography. When I shoot portraits, I go with better quality glass, but then again I pay for it. The average photographer can use this lens for family events, pets, street photography, and much more... and it is good enough.This is a good compact lens made for the OM series cameras (non-digital).

A classic film lens that finds a new home in the digital future.
This lens is a very popular item for OM series film SLRs. It is very usable on modern micro four thirds cameras, such as the E-PL1. Note, these newer cameras have a crop factor of 2x, so on this camera this becomes a very nice 100mm lens! Four out of five stars because there is a better 50mm/1.4 version out there, but for more money. If you just want to play around with old manual focus lenses on a micro four thirds camera, this is a great one to start with.This lens is a very popular item for OM series film SLRs.

Olympus Zuiko OM 50mm f1.8, DSLRs and You
I bought one of these to have a fast 50mm lense for my E500. I also bought a box of them from a seller here on eBay. They all cleaned up very nicely and are now in the hands of happy DSLR users. After seeing how well the less than perfect lenses performed I spent the extra money and acquired one in perfect condition with not one disappointment. The lense has excellent imaging capabilities. I saw no typical flaring when the sun was behind my subjects or ghosts. Everything was crisp and sharp even with the extremes of lighting situations. I give it very high marks when used with extension tubes or a bellows for close up images. Where I've seen other lenses start to fail this one seems to get better. My suggestion is look for the ones with the black edges around the f/stop ring and ... I bought one of these to have a fast 50mm lense for my E500.

After seeing how well the less than perfect lenses performed I spent the extra money and acquired one in perfect condition with not one disappointment. The lense has excellent imaging capabilities. I saw no typical flaring when the sun was behind my subjects or ghosts. Everything was crisp and sharp even with the extremes of lighting situations. I give it very high marks when used with extension tubes or a bellows for close up images. Where I've seen other lenses start to fail this one seems to get better. My suggestion is look for the ones with the black edges around the f/stop ring and filter thread (black nose version). The multicoatings on the lenses I've had resulted in noticeably better images compared to the silver nose version. The lenses have a nice compactness to them which was always Olympus's specialty and strong point. It makes them easy to handle and carry around making it much more likely that you'll have your camera with you for that special picture. They all have 49mm filter threads so their filters and hoods are not large either. This makes an excellent portrait lense for all the new DSLRs that Olympus is selling. You can isolate the subject without having to be too close and blur the background with the wider fstops that you can't get with the zoom/kit lenses. Some might say it's soft wide open and I would disagree. Even if it was soft wide open do you really want a lense to show every pore, nook and cranny on a person's face when you're taking their portrait? Such pictures end up being very unflattering. If the purpose of your portrait is to highlight the flaws then I suggest looking at the 50mm macro version. That will get you what you're going for. For general photography with a mild telephoto perspective and fast speed on the Olympus DSLRs this is the affordable choice. You can even get adapters for your Canon EF mount cameras. The review asks what do I dislike about this lens. I have to say I dislike the fact I didn't know about this high quality optic until this past year. There's nothing to dislike.
