Did you really need 1/2000 sec for a street scene (not that I take many)?

The light was dim and I needed to freeze the subjects.

1/250 would have done it.

My experience is that 1/250 isn't fast enough to stop motion from people AND the shooter

Maybe if you're jumping up and down and waving the camera at arm's length. For the sample shots provided, I expect 1/250 would be plenty if the shooter would use good holding technique.

, with the GX85 and the 15/1.7. I do agree 1/2000 was a bit fast, but I don't think ALLCAPS has been using that set up much so it will take a few sessions to find the sweet spot.

If I MUST STOP action, then I set it at 1/1000 and I haven't had an issue. If the action is a bit slower 1/640 works pretty well, but I have to be stationary.
