Your lens is fine. The mushy foliage is most likely a result of heavy-handed NR. I know you had set NR to 0 but some NR seems to have been applied anyway.

By the way, I can see some mushy foliage in the other picture as well (outside of your crop).

You should really try shooting raw. It will solve these problems.

The Pana 14-45 is an extraordinary kit lens, just as good as my Oly 12-40 except for the extreme edges. I would use mine a lot more if it could go to 12 mm on the wide end.

Thank you.

I know RAW could get the best.

However as in another shot under good lighting condition the result is not best, but is far better.

For heavy shadow lifting in PP a lot of noise will be expected for that sereve underexposed image. Never expected that poor outcome...
