So very tempting. I love my 25 mm 0.95 and if this is razor sharp when stopped down how will I be able to resist it?
G5, EP-3, VF 2, 14mm, 17 mm, 20 mm, Nokton 25 mm, 45mm, 12-35 mm, 35-100mm, 14-42 mm, 40-150mm. E-5 and a quiver of 4/3 lenses.

Plenty of fast primes for m4/3 between the MF and AF

12/2
17.5/.95
20/1.7
25/.95
25/1.4
45/1.8
75/1.8

An now a PRO body to add to the mix  :)

Yes it is, but I want a 17mm f/1.8, and not f/.95 or f/2.8, that's why I sold my 1st m4/3 lens, an O/17mm for a P/20, and now I also have the P/14, but, f/2.5 is for that fl.

f/1.4 would work also, I could of used f/1.4 last night at open mic night. I would of had 1/80 to 1/160 at ISO 2000 instead of 1/40-1/80

I would prefer a ZD 20/1.4 or faster since 20mm is a great compromise between a 25mm standard and a 17|17.5mm moderate wide angle. Failing that, I would consider 17|17.5/1.4 faster. Both lenses are great all rounders for street/portrait/landscape/town|cityscapes/travel/night|low light photography.
Regards,
