Re: New to MFT and need lens advice

Well, if you've already got the 12-60, the next lens I think you should get for telephoto is the Panny 100-300..... good deals available used if you shop around. I've got one and for what it is, it's IMHO excellent. I've used it on Olympus OM-D bodies, have taken a few hand-held shots of the moon and am amazed at the sharpness (hand-held).

(If money is no object, go for the 100-400).

In general though I have found that Panasonic lenses work best on Lumix bodies, and Olympus lenses work best on Olympus bodies.  If you're looking for a wide-angle, the Lumix 7-14 is great in many ways but if you don't know what chromatic aberration is now, you sure will find out using this lens!
