What are the alternatives to the olympus m zuiko 17mm f 1 8?

If you want the same 17mm view on Micro Four Thirds, the site has two other lenses in this focal length.

• Olympus M.Zuiko 17mm f/2.8: a thin pancake from the early PEN kits. It's slower than the f/1.8, but it's small enough to forget about in a coat pocket.
• Olympus M.Zuiko 17mm f/1.2 PRO: a weather-sealed f/1.2 prime. It's faster and tougher, so it's the one I'd reach for in rain or dim rooms, but it's a bigger step up.

All three frame the same, about 34mm equivalent. The aperture is the only real difference, and the focal length converter shows how much that changes the background blur.
