Panasonic GX8 - Panasonic Leica DG Summilux 25 f1.4

As you can image if it rains every day when on holiday, you tend to bring a lot of time indoors. Luckily I has packed the PL 25 f1.4 for just this eventuality. A really nice lens and behaves very well on the Panasonic GX8.

Olympus E-M5 - Panasonic Leica DG Summilux 25 f1.4

I just love the way the clouds are just coming over the tree tops, it looked a little like a wave breaking on a beach. Well, that's the way I saw it anyway. The lens balances well on the E-M5 and I can see me using it again on this camera.

Having used the Nikon V1 a lot lately and having enjoyed using it, I can definately say I can see a quality different when returning to a camera with a larger sensor, albeit the difference isn't all that much. The m4/3 sensor is larger and I do like the quality more than the Nikon V1 CX format sensor.

It also pays to purchase a good lens; one that you're happy with. Only then can you go out with confidence and enjoy your photography because you know that the lens will deliver. My moto nowadays, buy less but buy well. Spend a little more for those few lenses you will own and you can't go wrong. Buy so-so lenses and you will regret it, and probably spend more in the long run when buying the lenses you should have bought initially.

This is an impresssive lens, it doesn't matter which camera you put it on it seems to always deliver. In this case I put it on the Olympus E-M5 and that camera has enough dynamic range that the highlights didn't blow and the blacks didn't block, which normally is the case. It is very sharp and seems to be best at f4 - f5.6. It was set at f5.6 for this image. Micro contrast is good and the colours are snappy, just the way I like it.

The Holy Trinity of Panasonic m4/3 Lenses

The Holy Trinity of Panasonic m4/3 Lenses

These lenses are the Holy Trinity of Panasonic m4/3 lenses at the time of this post. The 12-35 f2.8 and the 35-100 f2.8 are the fastest zoom available for the m4/3 system right now. The equivalent lenses on 35mm format are the 24-70 f2.8 and the 70-200 f2.8. Put these on the G5 and you have a really wondeful system that covers 95% of all situations. The G5 hasn't had much attention because of the Olympus OM-D but I can tell you here and now that it's a fine camera. There is also the Panasonic GH3 to consider but I see it as more of a movie camera and that is why I went for the G5. Price was also a major factor for my choice.

The last for now from the 25 f1.4. Just a taster for you. I'll post some more images when I think they're good enough. Probably at the end of next month or thereabouts.
Really impressed here with the sharpness of the lens and with the DR of the Olympus OM-D. The hightlights were really harsh here but the OM-D managed to keep it all together.

This really is the lens to get for m4/3 format. I've heard a lot about it but really didn't think I needed it until I was shooting a dancing show in low light. That was it, I caved in and got it. Really sharp and works well on the OM-D. Just a couple of shots with this lens right now but I promise there will be more on this lens.

Last image for now from the 25 f1.4. Notice the bokeh here, quite nice I think.
That look I'm getting int his image is the "Ok, that's enough" look. I've come to know it quite well recently when I'm using my wife as a model because she's the only other person around. I tend to sneak a picture in once in a while when she's not expecting it. Problem is, she knows me too well.
