Bought the Oly - Re: Is the Panny 14-140 worth $150 more than the Oly 14-150?

Thanks to a great group and the many helpful comments, I finally decided on the Olympus 14-150 lens. I decided that the $150 savings over the Panny was just too much to overlook. One could say that the savings paid for my new Panny 25mm f1.7 lens and filter.

I have of course been trying the Oly out and am really pleased with the range - kind of blows you away at first to have such a zoom range available. Even in my 35mm days, I never had access to anything close to a 300mm equivalent lens - sweet.

I've not had good enough weather and light to make a 'real test' of image quality, but my initial pixel peeping has not been disappointing.

Thanks again for all the helpful comments (and some images too).
