Re: Got the Laowa 10mm f/2 -- Few Notes

I bought a used Laowa 10mm f2 but only used it on one outing before I sold it. Even though I had a GX7 and GM5 at the time but, I only used it on my GX9. For me, 10mm was much wider than I expected and decided I preferred my Olympus 12mm f2. That was my only reason for selling it. I agree with most of what you said but I really didn't see the vignetting you did. I rarely use hoods and left the 10mm's hood in the box. Also I put a brand new Hoya NxT Plus 46mm UV filter on as soon as I got the lens.
