Hi Kipling and thank you for the post.

Given Schneider Kreuznach's reputation with respect to image quality, these are likely to be superb. Is their any information on availability and price within the link (My German is not so good)? Micro four thirds is seeing lots of new glass during Photokina 2012.

As I understand the 14mm will be available in the third quarter 2113 at a price below 1500€, followed by the other two lenses in the 4rth quarter same year.

It's great to have choice, but these seem to exactly duplicate what is already available.

Not only that, the prices are on the high side as well.

Panasonic will come up with more useful ones (as Po mentioned):
