This lens is extremely thin, it's legit the same size as a body cap. With that being said I'm impressed by everything Olympus was able to do when designing it (will talk more about that later). The lens has 3 glass elements (which is impressive) and is made out of complete plastic. I doubt this lens can take much of a drop, but it's so cheap that if it did accidentally fall you wouldn't be too upset. The reflective metal strip on the front of the lens is rather appealing, it makes the lens look less inexpensive. There's not much beyond that...

Operation

Operating the lens is fairly simple, again, when you factor in its size you can't expect it to be a really intricate device. Because of its small size, there is no focus ring, instead, the lens has a little lever towards the bottom that gives you three different options. The first is to close your lens, this is what I call "body cap mode". The second option on the lever allows the lens to focus at infinity and the last option allows the lens to focus as close as 30cm.

For those wondering, no, the lens does not have autofocus, but it's not as much as a downfall as you'd expect! By not having to worry about focusing (beyond switching the lever back and forth) it really allows you to focus on the shot, you become more aware of how you need to shoot and you know when to get closer or when to step back, it's quite calming. The lack of autofocus and electronic functionality also means your camera loses all EXIF data, so for those of you who have in camera IS be sure to set the focal length via your camera so this feature can be activated properly.
