Yes, I have one of these.  Used it for a few months before I came across a
Zuiko 24/2.8.  Generally, I liked it ...BUT... it was (at the time) the
widest lens I had ever used, and that in of of itself was intoxicating (I
love WIDE, well for lenses anyway).  I really haven't touched it since I got
my Zuiko nearly three years ago (really should sell it, but, I might need a
back-up 24 some day:-))  For what it's worth, I paid $60 used LN, so $80
doesn't seem like a bad price, but hey, maybe I overpaid, ya never know.
