New to Panasonic 4/3's
4

I have been a long time user of DSLR's and my latest camera is a Nikon D750 and two Tamron Lenses 24-70 + 70-300 mm lens, the combination is great and I can't complain about the image quality. But I have always wanted something lighter and smaller to carry when I'm out and about and travelling, I have had in the past Fuji XE 1, Sony RX100 and Olympus OMD 10 mk 11. None fitted what I what really wanted although all had great picture quality, I really like the Oly but the thing was to small for my hands and the dials were too easily knocked off their settings.

So now I have bought a Panasonic GX7 second hand and a new Pana 14-140mm Lens it's my first day with the camera and I'm pretty impressed with this camera and lens setup, compared to my Nikon D750 the size and weight difference is amazing.

I'm posting a few shots taken in RAW and edited in ACR, one photo taken at 140mm focal length looks like it is suffering from shutter shock so I have enabled Electronic Shutter straight away. but all in all I'm pretty happy.
