One of my few remaining lenses is the Olympus ZD 11-22mm f/2.8-3.5 (FourThirds SLR mount, works beautifully on Micro-FourThirds with the adapter, if a touch large ... https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25268645/oly_epl1_11-22.jpg ). At 11mm, it gives me that lovely 90 degrees across the diagonal, which is as wide as I'll ever need. This is a superb, super, astonishingly excellent lens.. For a more compact and dedicated mount lens, the Olympus M.Zuiko 12mm f/2 is superb, and 24mm EFoV is in the right ballpark. Panasonic offers a 7-14mm, Olympus a 9-18mm, the Olympus 17mm f/1.8 is beautiful and petite (35mm EFoV). Panasonic has the 14mm f/2.8 and 20mm f/1.9. So there are plenty of wide angle lenses to fill the bill. I already have the 11-22.
