I know it doesn't seem to have the spark since the Panasonic 20mm came into the picture, but I like the look and design of the lens and to me it fits perfectly with the finish of the camera. While some reviews (though lenstip gave is high marks) haven't been exactly favorable, the pictures I have seen look rather remarkable. I can live with some CA, and distortion is fixed via the JPEG engine, so no worries there.

My question is should I get the OVF, is it worth it, does it complete the kit ?

It has some problems with not covering the entire frame, but other than that it is fairly nice.
