Yep, the price also jumps around wildly... Almost $700 for the newest iteration seems like robbery considering the previous version has gone as low as $500 (from Amazon directly too, not merchants/grey).
I paid like $530 when it wasn't even a year old and still went out of stock often (a gift, not for me). Those 10x zooms are a lot more popular than many enthusiasts would guess, and the 14-140 is an excellent one.
Shame they didn't weather seal it like Oly did with their most recent 14-150.
I'm curious to see if they changed more than the cosmetics. What if they addressed the shutter shock issue with this lens?
And didn't make any sort of claim about it? I guess if they wanted to deny it ever happened in the first place, maybe, tho other lenses with similar issues were fixed in firmware.
Panny has never admitted shutter shock exists, so as far as their concerned, there's nothing to fix.

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
We're Noct messing around with this review.
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom impress in a lot of ways, but their noise reduction lags the competition and their lens corrections lack a real-world basis. DxO PureRAW 3 aims to come to their rescue without totally reinventing your workflow!
