OK. Thanks.
So it's not as quick as a DSLR, but quicker than a compact? Is it really noticeable?
Not had chance to get my hands on one yet.

It's all a compromise with them, you lose a lot of weight but obviously things are as fast as a DSLR so if you shoot a lot of high speed action or low light not recommended.

Do you miss the viewfinder Tom?
With my G1+f0.95 lens I can shoot in lower light at lower ISO than I can with my 5D and f1.4 and with the additional gain through the EFV I can actually see more than I can with an OVF so in darkness the G camera actually beats the DSLR as f0.95 lenses for DSLR's a are bit few and far between
At the moment, not so much, although I do keep instinctively putting the camera to my eye.
My 14-45 just turned up too, how about that for service. Ordered it from ebay on the 21st at about 4pm. I couldnt believe it was the lens as I was unwrapping it, my sensor Loupe is actually bigger. Its tiny!
The focus on both seems good so far, pretty snappy, although obviously slow compared to my D700. I think for what Im going to use it for, its fine though.
Loving the DOF on the the 20mm.
That's interesting. I always thought a 5D had a few stop advantage so you could shoot at ISO 400 with the 5D but need to crank the µ4/3 camera up to ISO 1600 or so to get the same exposure, obviously also increasing the noise.
Think Im in love!

I am seriously thinking of getting a Panasonic myself now! Not sure i could live without the viewfinder though so would have a be one with a viewfinder. Then again, maybe i could give it a try!
Depends what you want to shoot, and whether or not you can live with primes!theceej said:Can anyone recommend a good lens setup for the GF2? I currently have the standard 14-42mm but am looking to upgrade.

I'm normally in the uv filter camp with my DSLR's, but with my panny lenses I've never bothered. The 14mm lens front element is absolutely minuscule!theceej said:Thanks guys. I was edging towards the 14mm, seen some fairly good prices on it. Do you use a filter with it? Any recommendations on that front too?
