Hi Sean, Kerusker? and Markus, Will try to answer all your questions together.I am not a paid reviewer, my time is limited, I don’t have the technical gadgetry to exactly measure and compare specs...

The small sensor / high pixel density really lets this camera down!  If Olympus had chosen to go with a 9 or 10 megapixel sensor rather than the 12 megapixels, image quality could be far superior....

Have used the 35-100mm f2.8 for six months and it has become my favourite tele lens. Optical quality is far superior to the other Lumix tele-zooms I own (14-140, 45-200, 100-300, 45-175) and the...

I barely took this lens off my GX1 since I got it because it is fast, with a very useful wider angle and overall excellent optical quality. As such, it is far better than most Lumix lenses to-date....

Looking at the specs, this could be a great lens and long overdue! If optical quality match that of major manufacturer's comparable f2.8 zooms, then the price indicated could be justified.
I do...

By increasing size / weight (+25%) and canning "multi-aspect sensor" the GH3 loses 2 key advantages over APS DSLR's. No matter how they tweak processors / sensors, a smaller sensor size will...

Definitely the best zoom lens to-date from Lumix but I would not call it “professional grade”. Lumix’s new flagship lens is excellent at many settings, yet has some weaknesses. Panasonic have...

Pocketable indeed! The larger sensor is a good idea, but I think 12MP would be more than sufficient whereas a 5x zoom in the 24-120 or 25-125 range would have really set it apart from the other...
