About
I'm a nature filmmaker and photographer for over 31 years. I really enjoy the tech available today for video and photo work, so need to sell some of my older pieces to make way for the newer stuff...I live in the desert with my sweetheart wife and 2 dogs.

Excellent lens for any M43 Application.
It is a great lens, but since I have to sell the DJI Osmo Pro X5, I don't need this lovely M43 prime lens anymore. I already have 12mm covered in zoom lenses for my existing Panasonic and Olympus M43 kits, so can't justify having this one, too. Sold it to a happy buyer!

Total professional quality. I'll never need to upgrade in this focal range!
I shoot mostly nature video w/Panasonic GH3. First of all, this is a supremely sharp lens, throughout the zoom. It's built really well, is rather heavy (which I like) and has become my be-all lens in this focal length range. My only wish is it would sprout image stabilization. That said, it is an Olympus and though I'd never own an Oly for video, I like that their cameras have the stabilization in-camera. Boo points for Panasonic on that one. Still, this is an amazing piece of glass and is my go-to for "normal" everyday shooting. For still shooting, I mostly shoot manual, as I come from a 24 year video career. I have tried AF w/this on my GH3 and correct, it doesn't focus quickly at all. I could update my camera to latest firmware, then go to Oly and update the lens...who knows? It might focus faster. Doesn't really matter, as I'm a MF guy, anyway.
I'm not a lens collector, but a lens lover. The light of life passes through lenses. Best to keep that light as pure as possible.
