Re: GX8.... the lens whisper

Finally getting comfortable with this camera and my goodness this thing is a beast when it comes simplifying shooting great photos. Handling is better, and more importantly I can use the tiny 14mm f2.5 to to shoot surprisingly sharp photos, as sharp as my 20mm f1.7.

The dynamic range is also better with the GX8 as is lower noise at higher iso.

I do miss the tilt screen and the video steadiness of the from the GX85, but otherwise this is an all around better experience.  Not sure I would have appreciated the GX8 without my year and half with the GX85, so the GX85 did serve its purpose.
