Hi,

I recently bought a second-hand GM1 and 12-32 lens. I really just wanted the lens (to use on my E-M10) but, as my wife's Canon Powershot G11 had become faulty, I suggested that she tried it out.

The outcome is that it is now officially her camera......

She is generally happy with its performance but she used to take a lot of macro shots with the G11. The 12-32 is a pretty good lens but it doesn't have close enough focus for her needs.

So, one option is to get the Panny 30mm macro lens. Obviously, despite being a relatively small lens, I suspect it will still looks huge on the GM1.

Has anyone used the 30mm on the GM1 or GM5? Is it manageable?

Thanks

Probably my most favourite lens on the GM1 - works fine.
