One of the BEST M43 Wide Angle - Laowa 7.5mm f/2 Micro Four Thirds (Long Term Review)

Today I am revisiting a Micro Four Thirds wide angle lens that I've been using a lot for Landscape and Travel photography, and also for everyday photography these last few months, the Venus Optic Laowa 7.5mm f/2. After using this lens frequently again these last few months, I want to add some new observations as well as what I think about this fantastic little Micro Four Thirds lens, and also share some sample pictures taken using this lens as well.
