A cross-post from the Alt. DSLR thread at FM:
As I use this as the 'go-to' baby- and cat-cam (using the 14–45 and 45–200 OIS Panny lenses), I wonder if anyone has experience with the other Panny lenses (or Oly lenses that AF with the G1)?
I ask because the images out of this toy have a lovely quality; it focuses pretty quickly, and the swivel screen really is practical for overhead shots.
The Oly 14–54 (ver. II) has been recommended, but that's a pretty big lens on this body and, if I went that route, I'd probably prefer the 12–60 (if it AFs) for the 12mm end, and it's only 100g heavier, IIRC.
Does anyone know when the 14 prime is coming? Has anyone here used the 45 macro? I did like the 20/1,7 when i had it, too. TIA, kl
