Hi Everybody... I'm relatively new to M4/3 with a Panasonic G7 and a few of the inexpensive lenses (the kit zoom, the 25 1.7, and a couple vintage manual focus 50mm primes). However, I'm curious about experiencing the absolute best that the system has to offer just to see. I've heard that it's not really fair to judge M4/3's IQ until you use one of the pro lenses, so I was thinking it might be fun to rent something and see for myself. I typically shoot in the 24-70 range (travel, street, everyday) though I also do some portraiture--so I guess anywhere from 24-150mm is the range I'm looking at (FF equivalent obviously). If you were to recommend renting one lens anywhere in that focal range, prime or zoom, what would it be? It doesn't need to be the most "practical" lens either.
I've never used one, but the 40-150MM F2.8 PRO would be the top of my list to play with. But rent the 75mm 1.8, it's not a pro lens, but it's tremendous fun (if you're wondering to do with that focal length, it's great for butterflies).

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
We're Noct messing around with this review.
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom impress in a lot of ways, but their noise reduction lags the competition and their lens corrections lack a real-world basis. DxO PureRAW 3 aims to come to their rescue without totally reinventing your workflow!
The Sony ZV-E1 is the company's latest vlogging-focused camera: a full-frame mirrorless camera based the FX3/a7S III sensor, aimed at YouTubers and 'creators' looking to go pro.
