It is a fully capable, sharp lens that can deliver excellent results. The lens is very inexpensive and compact and it will make your M4/3 camera a great option to carry around. It’s bright f/2 maximum aperture benefits working in low-light conditions and also affords greater control over depth of field.

Meike 50mm f/2 is very well made. You would expect a lot of plastic at this price, but it has all-metal construction. While small, it has a satisfying heft in the hand. Even the slip-on lens cap is made of metal, and fits snugly over the lens. The focus ring moves smoothly, with just the right amount of resistance. The lens is fun to use, light and subtle enough to be brought for street photography or any event without attracting the crowd. The lens is small, so it’s a very good low profile street lens. If you put it on a small APS-C camera, nobody will think anything of you shooting street photography.

Meike MK-50mm f/2 Lens for Micro Four Thirds Cameras is made specifically for M4/3 mirrorless cameras, so it’s focal length is equivalent to a 100mm lens. For such a cheap lens the sharpness it provides is superb. Center sharpness is really nice with the Meike 50mm f2 even when wide open at f/2. As you stop down to around f/4 it gets even better. So this is about as sharp as you typically see with M4/3 lenses when their tuned for center sharpness. You can get a little sharper or a little less sharp, but for the most part this lens is in the ballpark of good center sharpness. There is a bit of vignetting at f/2, but it’s mostly gone by f/4. The lens had some very minor barrel distortion. Chromatic aberration issues are very minimal as well.

Individual lens elements feature a multi-layer nano coating to control surface reflections, flare, and ghosting in order to realize a high degree of contrast and color accuracy, even when working in bright and backlit conditions. Additionally, the lens sports a manual focus design for working with subjects as close as 25cm away.

Meike 50mm f/2 is an excellent general use lens. The 50mm focal length gives you that 100mm field of view which is incredibly useful and it can work in so many situations. For under $100 dollars, you can’t really go wrong here.
