Is the Tamron 14-150mm really a no-go for Panasonic users?

Why would you bother ?

Why would you bother when Panasonic have the Fantastic 14-140-II which is not only the best superzoom optically (for any camera system) but also has OIS and perfectly suited to your G7 ? ....

The Tamron was for Olympus owners who wanted a better lens when the Oly 14-150 Mk1 was out but didn`t want to deal with potential CA removal issues when using a Panny lens .

With the Supposedly better Oly 14-150-II , there`s little reason for the Tamron's existence as both OEM makers now have a better lens ......

tamron ought to do for M43 what they do for APS-C and make absurd focal range superzooms which are better than they ought to be - I await the announcement of the Tamron 12-300-VC-USD
