Re: Panasonic 14-42 II & 45-150 to a 14-140

The 14-140 is quite sharp.  I owned two different copies of it and had shutter shock problems on my OMD bodies so I can't use it.  So, If was using an Oly body, I wouldn't use it, but I don't think Panasonic bodies have that issue.  It's a very nicely made lens too and I wanted to like it-- just didn't work well w/ Oly OMDs though.

I have to add that the photos that were sharp were really quite sharp for a super zoom.  I'd also rather have the super zoom than a pair of kit lenses.
