Its a Sigma lens. That should be enough to tell you about the quality. It
will give reasonable images but the build quality will be way below par.
This is the one brand name I'd stay away from, mass produced plastic. The
Zuiko 16mm f/3.5 would be a far, far better bet, though probably more
expensive. But, as I always say, you get what you pay for.
