Re: 12-60mm f/3.5-5.6

This is a very interesting lens.

I had de-kitted it on purchasing G85 (I didn't wish to retire the good old 12~35 f/2.8 yet since I know, if I have it, it will be my major walking around lens).

A fantastic zoom range for my major use. 😁

I read that on IQ, it is very close to the Panny Leica version.

Because it has been a kit lens to a  few models, there are a lot of them de-kitted on the gray market. For quite a long time I saw offers in the region between HK$1.7K ~ HK$1.9K ( around US$220~250). 2 weeks ago on my window shopping I saw an offer of HK$1.45K only (US$185)! F.Y.I.

I once used to buy from authorized dealers only. But as the over aggressive listed price of Panny, I turn to gray market in recent years.
