Re: Suggest a telephoto zoom for travel. I have 12-35 f/2.80 on GX7.

So, do have experienced shutter shock when using the 14-140 with GX7? How do you get around it?

The reason I ask is maybe replacing my 14-45 with 14-140 II for walk around longer reach travel lens.

You have original 14-140 or MK2?

I use the electronic shutter all the time on the 14-140mm II and have no shutter shock problems. It's a great travel lens.

Thanks.

I bought the Panny 12-35 f/2.8 to replace my 14-45 as my walk around travel lens.   On a GX7.

So , now looking for a telephoto zoom..  To use primarily for travel, not for portraits.   Also, prefer light, not 35-100 f/2.8.  For daylight use.

Recommendations?
