There is a new price drop on the most famous of all m43 lenses. The 20mm pancake sells for $339 at Amazon (Click here) and J&R (Click here). Panasonic is really doing many deals in these hot summer weeks!
There is one more interesting “phenomena” I want to show you. As you know Panasonic had that super GX1 and GF3 deal boxed with the 14mm pancake. Those pancakes are now sold “unboxed” for $171-$177 on eBay! So you can get a de facto new 14mm lens at [shoplink 32212 ebay]Podmantech (Click here)[/shoplink], [shoplink 32213 ebay]Eeassa (Click here)[/shoplink] and [shoplink 32214 ebay]Nomohideo (Click here)[/shoplink]. If you want it boxed than you have to spend $100 extra on Amazon (Click here).
P.S.: Looks like the people is not going to buy the 45-150mm lens tomorrow…the 45-200mm is the most sold mirrorless lens of the moment at Amazon (here is the ranking).

you are posting too fast =) please correct error in heading
yep 🙂
The unboxed one is not f/1.7 right?
Admin, they have been selling for less than this for a very very long time, even by the same seller. I bought one from that seller for $163 so the price has gone up not down. Old news , sorry:)
Hi! I never saw it before. That’s why I post it 🙂
What’s up Admin, we’ve been bragging about getting this lens for so low for ages here, seriously 🙂 The lens has been selling like hot cakes on Ebay.
You should also check out the Olympus 40-150. It sells on similar terms on Ebay (new unboxed, generous discount), ripped off Olympus PEN kits.
I’ve posted multiple times about snagging the 14 for $145 off eBay. I’m contemplating the 20.
I have bought two of these 14mm lenses over the past year. Both from the ebay seller jan1226 for around $160. I first got the grey and black version which I gave to my sister and then got the all-black version which I kept for myself and which looks awesome on my e-pm1. This guy was awesome to deal with and I have been using the 14mm even more than my excellent 20mm (although that could change if panny released an updated version with faster focusing).
Ugh – just bought one, along with a GX1. Oh well, more money for you, admin – I bought it through your link.

I got my 14mm from nomohideo2005. Fantastic little lens, and an incredible bargain at $169 (including shipping). Shipping was fast and the lens was well packaged (but not in the original box, of course). It also looks great on the OM-D.
Hi everybody,
I have the 17mm from Olympus, the 25mm from Panasonic/Leica, and the 45 from Olympus.
I am considering this 14mm, but it is so close to the 17mm from Olympus that I do not know if it is worth. How it copares to the Oly in terms of quality?
Thanks!
