Micro 4/3 25mm Lens Test
Are the Pro f1.2 or f1.4 lenses worth the money?
I own the Panasonic Leica f1.4 Mk 1 & while I’ve generally been happy with the performance, having recently upgraded my camera from G9 to G9ii, the lens lens doesn’t auto focus fast enough to take advantage of the face & eye detect with erratically moving subjects. It’s fine for things like landscapes & studio work but I found recently, when photographing a dance event, that ~25% of the time it missed focus. It’s quite an old design, launched in 2011 and I wanted to see if a more recently designed lens would perform better.
So I ordered from MPB the Olympus f1.2 Pro, the Panasonic Leica f1.4 Mk2, the Olympus f1.8 & the Lumix f1.7 for testing
What should you spend your money on?
