I'm with the last couple of opinions,the Sigma seems slightly sharper and more usefull most of the time for me personally ,f2.8 is fine for most light conditions,oss would be nice but what...

I had it,sent it back ,found it very soft at all apertures,the |Sigma 19mm is better at third of the price.

Can you view the replayed images through the built in viewfinder ?

The 16-50mm is average at best,good for video,but stills ,not great,don't really like the ergonomics,optically the Sigma 30mm i picked up this week is far far better in every way,much...

Yes def overpriced in the case of the 20mm,i picked one up the other day and tried it out against the moderatly ok 16-50mm kit lens,very dissapointed with the 20mm,soft lens,only fairly ok at...

Would  the best person to advise you about trimming all your gear is someone with stacks of gear and one who takes more photo's then the average hobby photographer,so best quailified. Hang on ,...

I missed more moments with slow zoom lens in the past, i carry the Oly 17mm and 45mm and i'm good,if i'm in a zoom mood i carry a Canon G15

I use the older non VC Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 lens,very sharp,fast f2.8 lens thru the focal range,compact and cheap on fleabay. 27mm for wide shots and 75mm for good portraits etc,all in one great lens.

Ha Ha call the G1x Ovf and viewfinder ! also the damm camera can't focus any closer then the nearest star system Lol

£1000, excuse while i scoop up my internal organs after my sides split with laughter LOL Nikon

Prehaps improve your photography abilities ?

I really like my GX1 and 20mm combo,but i do find it strange that folk compalin about the massive back breaking DSLRs,sure a Nikon D4 with a f2.8 zoom lens,but come on lets be realistic a bit shall...

Thanks everyone for the advice,will start hunting down some 85mm f1.8 samples,both Nikon and sigma.

Thanks,i understand the 17-55mm is a superb lens,but a monster of a lens,i prefer to use the 16-85mm general use and 35mm f1.8 for lower light.I am more into available light with reflectors in some...

Ok,i will be clearer,Panasonic colours are off and mostly to the point of ugly from my experience ie GF1 and GX1, pixel sharpness never seems to be as good as other brands such as Nikon or...

Sick of PP ing on the PC,my Nikon D3100 and X100 give good jpegs but my GX1 gives crappy jpegs.I saw some jpegs coming out of my friends LX7 and they had the best Panasonic colours i have seen to...

Using the 55-200mm vr as a poor man's portrait lens at the moment,but having been weighing up my options on the followingNikon 50mm f1.8 afs    fast but have heard bokeh is a bit roughNikon 40mm ...

Why not buy a micro 4/3 camera !!!  easy :-)

Sad people writting off m4/3 as inadequate for portraits,i suspect the obsession with narrow dof is from folk who lack skill and rely soley on narrow dof .
