It sort of was released with the S9 - just not actually available to buy. This is really a “It’s ready for production” release announcement.
? You can buy it in Wex £519 pre-order so maybe a few weeks for delivery judging by buying from them over the years.

I find the 18-40 very attractive also for non S9 users. I will defintely buy one.
I seldom shoot wider than 28mm. This is why I never taker my heavier Sigma 16-28/2.8 with me.
But sometimes you see something which demands for a wider WA and then you regret that you left it at home.
With this small and light 18-40, this is not the case anymore. It fits in every bag. If the image quality is good enough, this could be the perfect "just in case" WA, which you have always in the bag.
The 18-40 zoom is a good addition to the Sigma 28-70/2.8 or Lumix 24-105 or Lumix 70-300 for example.
Olympus has something similar in MFT with the 9-18mm zoom, by the way.

Being the owner of 24-105 and 70-300 a tiny 155g lens is very tempting, especially for video on dangerous hikes where the 18mm would be ideal. Single handed video clambouring down steep rocky descents is difficult with 24-105, even with 18-40 it still might be, I'd have to use phone video but I'd obviously prefer to use S5ii.
For stills photography I've less use for it but still 18-24mm I don't have, 24mm is plenty wide 99.9% of the time for me.
I had a 20-40 f2.8-f4 for Pentax APSC not long ago. The short zoom range did my head in but only a 2x meant IQ was good and I expect the Lumix 18-40 to be excellent, it should easily be as good as the 20-60, it is smaller but slower as a trade-off but I fully expect the IQ to be there with the lens design including 3 aspherical lenses, 2 ED lenses, & 1 UHR lens.

Who writes this stuff??? f4.5 to f6.3 for "enhanced depth of field control" - this is doublespeak at its finest!
And the aperture blades have zero to do with the bokeh!! The bokeh is the quality of the OOF areas, and the best OOF is when the lens is used wide open with the aperture blades not in use at all.

Absolutely. I don't understand why people wig out over using little lenses on larger, more ergonomic bodies. I use my Lumix 12-32mm, 14mm f2.5, Panny Leica 15mm and Laowa 10mm on my G9 with great success.
If I didn't already have both the Lumix 14-28 & 20-60mm, I'd have one for sure, on my S5.

I've got that, and the Lumix 14-28, an embarrassment of riches really.
I've been using my 26mm f8 and adapted EF 40 pancake quite a bit lately, I wouldn't mind seeing a 16 or 17mm Lumix prime in a similar vein to be honest. Yeah I know that the Sigma 17mm exists. But if Panasonic did a 16 or 17mm at similar quality and pricing as the 26mm, I'd buy that in a heartbeat. Manual focus and all

Watched a couple of the reviews now, it looks like a really nice little lens. Pretty much identical performance to the 20-60mm, which is plenty good enough for me. I really do like the collapsing design, that would work brilliantly for me when I'm out riding/hiking and carrying a small little backpack.
At this stage, I think I'll just stick with my 20-60mm, but I'm not vigorously opposed to reconsidered a little bit further down the track.
Great job Panasonic, they're certainly putting together a very compelling set of lenses for your typical, average traveller, or hobbyist. Great IQ, light weight, and not breaking the bank. Well done

The review from @Richard Wong is top notch, as usual and includes some comparison with the 20-60mm and 45mm Sigma. Thanks Richard!
