Thanks for the images - Re: Is the Panny 14-140 worth $150 more than the Oly 14-150?

Cristof,

Wow! Thank you, thank you for those images and your comments.  Those give me something tangible to consider.

The PanLeica is obviously superior.  At first glance, it looks like the PanLeica is almost a collectible, no longer made it seems, out of my price range too.

So, for me it will be as my subject line says.  I'm hoping to get back to try out the Oly 14-150 again, when there is decent light.

I will be getting one of these zooms because of wanting the longer reach on a walkabout lens.  I have the 14-42 II kit lens (better quality than I would have expected) and an Oly 60mm macro if I need 'serious' quality.

Thanks again for your helpful emperical evidence.
