LENSTOPIA Part IV — The Top 5 Lenses for Your Micro Four Thirds Camera (+ a few others)

The Voigtlander 17.5mm, 25mm, and 42.5mm f/0.95 lenses.
Data tells me that more than 100,000 of you caught my earlier Top 5 Nikon, Top 5 Canon & Top 5 Hasselblad lens posts, but it's intuition that tells me what many of you are really wanting is today's post on Micro 4/3 and mirrorless lenses.

LENSTOPIA Part III – The Top 5 Lenses for Hasselblad Cameras

Hasselblad 100mm f/2.2
In case you haven't been following the fun, this is the third installment in my Lenstopia series. We kicked off with Canon lenses a few months ago, then followed with Nikon's top 5.
