[ BBBBug ] - 12mm f/2 available at BHphoto and Amazon

I think one key advantage is the wide aperture. Sounds great for low light street photography.. Did you test it in low light yet?

Seems like the local prices for the 12mm is lower than I expected. Around the same price as buying online.

It's already in Singapore. There are some selling in the BnS section already (due to impulse purchase)

Got mine from SLR Revolution. Using it on my E-PL1 and wow, this thing focuses so much faster than the 20mm! Thoroughly impressed with it and in my opinion, well worth the money!

TK seems to hv the best price for 12 mm. Sharing with u guys so that u will save some bucks. I bought mine cheaper than MSC but more ex than TK. Well, at least u guys after me will benefit.

 

[Evilmerlin]

SLRRevo's price is definitely lower than TK photo.

Hi guys, found this review of the lens, appears to have great distortion

Distortion is corrected quite well in camera.

Prices seem to work out to about $1100 all in. I suspect we will be charged the Singapore Premium of about S$200 for local prices. Though I've yet to see any shops stocking it yet.

ms colour $1090
