Really good lens, no problems using and surprisingly sharp. Orginally had a 45-200 but never that happy with it so took a chance on the 45-175 and was glad I did. Thought that losing 25mm at the long end would be a problem but found that the sharpness of the 45-175 more than made up for it.

Can’t say I have ever seen any shutter shock on the G7, GX8 or G80 but then From memory I thought it had been blamed on a couple of other lenses.

My advice would be to go for it, you won’t be disappointed.

I will probably follow your advice and get the 45 175.
