Hello all,
How does the GX1 with a 14mm pancake prime fare in image quality?
I shoot aerial photography. I am using a Sony NEX 5N with the 16mm pancake right now. The 5N is a great little camera but the 16mm although good in the center has some image quality issue on the edges.
I have also used the Voigtlander 15mm screw mount and it is not bad but I am looking for a tad better. The Voigtlander is a bit heavier at 166 grams.
So I started hunting around and one combination may work for me is the GX1. I already have the 14mm pancake. The reasons are that the GX1 has a remote trigger option, is fairly light weight at 272 grams for the body and battery. It also suppose to have a pretty decent image quality.
I have a GH2 also and I use it with the 14mm pancake and I like the image quality. The only issue is that the GH2 body is a bit heavy. So I only use it for video shoots only.
My question is that if the GX 1 really does have a good image quality, especially with the 14mm pancake.
Also being a µ 4/3 I have a few adapters to put on different lenses from different brands.
Thanks in advance for your comments.
