Re: Panasonic body, Olympus 4/3 lenses best options? G85 any good?

Would be helpful to discuss which specific ZD 4/3 lenses you're considering. Many of us have used most of the collection on E-M1s--both models--and can comment on the transition to m4/3.

I use SHG lenses the most--7-14, 35-100, 150. Secondarily the 35 macro, 50-200 mk1, 12-60. The difference between how they behave on the E-M5 or GM5 and the E-M1s is night and day.

IQ-wise of course they do not care which camera they're mounted to. The SHGs wring every pixel from  the 20MP sensors, pretty good for a system that never went past 12MP.

Cheers,

Rick
