Re: Adding a decent lens to the G7

Yeh, I only use the 14-140 if I`m pushed, it is liable to the jitters but that might be me using it at the long end.

I use a tripod, MF and no IS and i get great results from the G7. What I do when I want to pan is to go shutter priority and select 50fps (in the UK) and that stops any jitter when panning. OK, you might have to use a Nd filter at times but well worth it. Out of interest a friend of mine has a non EU G7 that has 60fps as opposed to 50fps and gets superb panning results at most speeds, we are still trying to work out why.

I feel so much better now that I've given up Hope
