This is an excellent review, thanks. I fully concur with the comparison with the 14-45, which punches above its weight, and the 20mm. After a month serious use, I am very satisfied with this lens....

strange review, "less than stellar", "clunky" "crashes" , "sub par movie mode" and a gold award. Extremely very strange. Viva la difference

thanks for the thread, good to know

Its so easy to return items bought from Amazon that the practice is effectively already there.

lovely, how did you do that?

lovley!

It works with RAW files from my GH2 and LX7, but not with jpegs from either camera. Has no one else hada this problem? I have version SILKYPIXDSPro5Pana50281E.  'd be greatful for any suggestions.

I have a similar experience, but I cant use v5 for jpegs shot with panny cameras. Any advice?

All well and good, but I miss the LX7. I am a very satisfied user, and its cratering price should have earned it a spot in the line-up

should mention that the LX7 currently goes for $449. I played with the RX100 in the store, and it felt ... flakey. I bought the LX7 and am very satisfied. The review gets it right.
