Yeah, for the tiny GF2 around the corner?
I’m in for the 100-300 – after an 18 months wait!
Seriously, all the specs are good, and DPreview positive,
so no more whining about price – we’re into m43 for the
compact leading edge technology and superb performance.
It looks like prices in the UK will, initially, be around £350, which does seem rather expensive, more than the Canon 28mm f1.8 for instance. However the MTF curves do suggest that image quality will be at a high level.
I wonder which is the most expensive lens in the world in £ € or $ per gram?
I think some Leica lenses are at about £10/g but the Panasonic, at about £6.30 /g must be pretty high on the list.
Truly less is (i.e. costs) more.

One 14/2.5 for me, please! 🙂

429 Euro for the pancake… I think I’ll have to wait till the price drops a bit.
Why is it even more expensive than the 20mm pancake?
So the big *surprise* announcement turned out to be the 3D lens as predicted. Yawn.
On the US press release the following MSRPs
3D $249
14mm $399
100-300mm $599
Quite reasonable in my book
When are they released in Europe?
