30mm

ePhotozine (Click here) posted the first full review of the new Panasonic 30mm macro lens. And it earned the highest “editor’s choice” award:

Who could ask for more than a reasonably priced lens that delivers excellent sharpness across the frame from maximum aperture, useful optical stabilisation and life size magnification at its closest focusing distance? Of course the compact size and light weight also help to make this lens one that will win over many admirers.

New Panasonic lens preorders:
Panasonic 42.5mm f/1.7 POWER O.I.S. Lens at Amazon, BHphoto and Adorama.
Panasonic MACRO 30mm f/2.8 MEGA O.I.S. Lens at Amazon, BHphoto and Adorama.

Cool test: Olympus AIR with the 300mm Four Thirds lens!

Share
[shoplink 22138 ebay]OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA[/shoplink]

One of the advantages of the new Olympus AIR MFT “lens-camera” is that it allows a new kind of shooting with huge tele lenses! The picture on top shows how you can hold the [shoplink 22138 ebay]300mm f/2.8 Four Thirds lens[/shoplink] without having to use the tripod. Something that would be much harder to do if you would have a “normal” DSLR or Mirrorless camera on it.

DC.watch posted a full set of images to show how it works (Click on it to enlarge):

Image samples shot with tha combo can be seen at DC.watch.
