How does this compare to the Panasonic 14mm?
Performance-wise, it looks similar, but judging from your review, it gave you a much better user experience?
Oly's color rendition is preferred?

It is slightly better. The contrast is somewhat snappier in some situation.
However, it's a bit of a mystery why Oly does not take advantage of the CA auto-correction feature. This would help in the corners also with respect to the subjective quality perception.
It is an expensive lens though. I'd say that it is ~150EUR/US$ overpriced for what it does.
