I finally got my bonus pack from Olympus when I got my EM-5, I got a leather strap, wrapping cloth and the 15mm f/8 body cap lens, I took it for a test drive today to see how it performs/feels. I'm not sure about this lens, it feels a little strange on the OMD. I prefer the traditional feel of a dslr over a point and shoot which is kinda how it feels with this lens on. I think it would suit the PEN series cameras more.
I generally shoot in Aperture Priority so using this lens is strange as it is locked at f/8. Since the focus on this lens is manual I set the camera to manual focus (not that I think this would do anything as this lens has no contact points). It does allow me to place the camera in a pocket but the viewfinder makes this tricky, anyway here are a few shots I got with it today.
Art Filter - Grainy Film
Filter - Pinhole (I can see why people use this filter as the sharpness of this lens drops at the edges)

Used the little lever on the lens to focus closer
This shot is pretty crisp
I am very impressed with the quality of this shot with this little lens.
