erm the conventional zoom and power zoom u mentioned, in terms of IQ are they the same? and also size and specifications?

power zoom only useful for video ler..if u dun shoot video often dun reli need it. Not sure for IQ though
in terms of size Pana X lens is like pancake size. More compact than d normal kit lens

oh useful for video.. in terms of wat is useful for video? fast AF? uh oh.. i love it compact though but definitely aint paying much more just because of compactness XD
guys any other good m43 camera to intro other than gx1? price range 2000-2500..
*
not fast af..power zoom mean zoom la..smooth zooming when using it in video.

Get EP3 if tats ur budget. Or else invest abit more, get EM5 body only (Rm3k?) and 2nd hand kit lens

I am considering this lens for my future Olympus OM-D but is concerned about the foll:
1. can the lens IS be switched off when used on the Oly.
2. Reports of softness at the long end.
3. reports that zooming causes wobbling of lens
*
Never play the X lens b4 so i not sure. But u can alwiz switch off the body IS.
ur question 2 and 3 need refer review of the X lens. Y not get Olympus 12-50mm? It also has power zoom.
Not to mention it had wider coverage and longer zoom. The draw back is the aperture value on long zoom.

Malaysia camera prices quite similar to US price after conversion. At the present
exchange rate those who can wait a bit after local launch will pay street price :

1.> rm3K for body only
2. > rm3.9K for body and 12-50 lens

This is just my wish and prediction only.  whistling.gif

if body only 3k i will get it by may or june tongue.gif
saying hard for it T3T

no Rm3.5k with the body but free MMF3..pretty worth it if u take MMF3 instead of 32GB memory card.

Too bad i got MMF2 already cry.gif

Waiting other shop start selling and hopefully can get around RM3k for body

if u looking for 2nd hand it is cheap. if u getting brand new u might as well consider EPL3. EPM1 look too sony-ish LOL
