Hello all
First post here. I joined as this seems one of the friendliest, knowledgeable and most helpful forums I've seen.
I've currently got the Panasonic G1 with the 14-45 and 45-200 kit zooms (plus an Olympus 9-18). I'm seriously thinking of getting the GH1 for a couple of reasons: I'd like the video capability and would also like the 14-140 zoom as a general walk-around lens so it seems to make sense to get them together.
I'm likely to sell the 45-200 as I see there will be a 100-300 zoom out next year but I'm really pleased with the 14-45 and am concerned that if I sell this I will be disappointed with the 14-140 IQ.
Has anyone used both? I appreciate that super-zooms have optical compromises but the 14-140 does seem to have had some good reviews.
I print up to 18" x 12" (although not often) and my current gear gives me good enough quality for this, especially with careful post processing. Any comments as to whether the 14-140 will give me similar quality would be appreciated.
Many thanks
John.
