Hi Rafa,Is there a lens out there with a 20mm equivalence (should be a 10mm micro four thirds) that is small, portable and that can be used on the micro 4/3 system via adapter? I'd really like to have a 20mm fov with the E-P1 with a small compact lens.
which is of course effectively a 40mm lens on a 4/3rds sensor ... and since the poster was asking about equivalent focal lengths I guess he was meaning something that will make an image as wide as that looks.Rafa
Don't overlook the 20mm lens from Cosina Voightlander made for the Nikon F mount. I think it does a terrific job on my D3 and D3X but I don't have a micro 4/3 for testing.

Yes. Unless you go to the trouble of making your own "small, fast, wide" prime,This isn't what the poster wanted to hear, most likely... but if you need full frame coverage and good image quality, the easiest thing might just be to get the Pana 7-14.
Not exactly small, and not exactly cheap. Sounds like the old joke about offset printing: "Good... fast... cheap... pick any two."
The CV12 does quit a good job on the G1 even if it's not as good as the Lumix 14-45@14mm.has anyone used the cv 12 on the g1?
Massive? it fits into a very small space! Flare is it's biggest weakness imho...Thanks, Don. I've checked out the Cinegon 10mm/F1.8 and even though the performance looks great, it's a massive lens. It doesn't necessarily have to be 10mm. It can be less than that.
I'm going to take a look the compatibility chart you've posted.
