Whoops! my bad. Funny as I do post here, but most of my gear is either film cameras or legacy lenses, so I did not know I fitted in until now posting this full-fledged digital kit.
Originally posted by Jonathan Mac Still, I'd be interested in how this lens performs as these little f/2.8 Sigmas have intrigued me for their low price and unique focal lengths. Not that I have a m4/3 body to use them on, but I did recently see a PM1 for sale for €50...
Most shots I've taken are of my child/family, thus I do not share them on Flickr or here. There are a few fair samples in this Flickr album (my album)

I love the combo as a point-and-shoot. But note I also used it for a long exposure night shot for my X-mas decorations - photo in the album linked above.
I got the lens with hood and caps for $90 from KEH. It was "priced to sell". I did not see other copies on ebay for less.
PS = the Art version is optically the saem as this one; they made changes to the barrel/grip.
PPS = the E-PM1 is a great small camera. SMALL. Good colours, ISO only 200 minimum. No focus peak, so MF is hard. I'd recommend if paired with some AF small glass, not for legacy glass use (albeit if you have 5 minutes to set up your shot, yeah why not. I've taken shots with my Rokkor 58/1.4 and those are pretty too - see this other album =
