Description

The Pansonic Lumix G 25mm F1.7 ASPH is an affordable and capable option for Four-Thirds shooters seeking something more versatile than the kit lens, especially for low-light photography. It's well-built, compact, and fast/quiet to focus, making it a good choice for stills and video shooters alike.

Anyone interested in this lens, as an alternative to the similar Olympus for aerial shooting with drones, where one of the first and most important specifications, necessarily is the weight? The 'cats-eye' bokeh is mostly gone by F4. However, bokeh discs becomes less rounded. Specifically, the polygonal shape of the lens's 7-blade aperture becomes more pronounced in the out-of-focus highlights, when you stop down past F2.8, and this can have a slightly negative impact on bokeh in general. Panasonic GH4- The GH4 is the company’s flagship camera and it focuses incredibly fast with this lens. With this update, it is possible to load low compression and high quality data directly to the PC without transcoding for smooth NLE(non-linear editing)

Autofocus is driven by a micro motor in the lens body, which works very well. It's not as fast as the Panasonic 14-45mm or 14-140mm zooms, but it's not terribly slow either (obviously this depends to some extent on the specific body used, with the E-P1 feeling just a little bit slower than the G1 or GF1). The focus motor is very quiet, and unlikely to intrude on any occasion. The 20mm F1.7 is also capable of continuous autofocus in movie mode. Lens body elements Certainly with the firmware upgrade (1.1) which lets you magnify more easily the screen viewer it is easy to focus with Nikon and other non-autofocus glass. Panasonic Lumix G 20mm F1.7 II ASPH vs Panasonic Lumix G 20mm F1.7 ASPH vs Panasonic Leica Summilux DG 25mm F1.4What is the close focus of the 20/1.7? And also – I am thinking of maybe owning at least one digital camera – and have been thinking about M4/3 and using my best of breed nikkors (28 2.8 AIS, 50 1.8 AIS MK3, 85 1.4 AFD) on it. Is manual focus with the EVF close enough to the ease of the split prism and ground glass (1978 one for f2.0 and faster lenses) or will I get out of focus shots with the EVF when I shoot at 1.4-2.0 – as I do with the contemporary K focus screen that came with my FM3a. It is pity the review doesn't seem to have mention anything about if the focus engine noise has been improved. If you search about the old 20mm, there are much more talks on the focus noise than the focus speed. And also the bokeh quality of 20mm is a little bit better than the 25mm. It would be good if the review can confirm the quality of the bokeh of the new 20mm has unchanged or as good or improved :P Unveiled to the world just over a decade ago, the Panasonic Lumix G 20mm f/1.7 II Asph. lens has been around for a while and made many friends, but is it still a good buy for Micro Four Thirds users? Main reason being was weight, it was just to heavy sometimes lugging it all about even with just the body & one lens. One of the reasons why this m4/3 system is taking off, and also why many big DSLR shooters are selling their entire kits for a Leica M9 is all about weight and size. In the past, small cameras were, well, CRAP! They had excessive noise, bad color, and the images were flat and awful. Today we are just about at that point where we can buy a smaller camera and get big DSLR quality out of it. In the case of the Leica M9, we surpass that big DSLR quality and approach medium format.
