QUOTE(bobds78 @ Apr 4 2017, 09:08 AM) The milky way is definitely a fantastic subject.  You think the 12-35 f4 will be sharper that the 12mm at f2? Coz dxomark tested the oly 12mm and found that the sharpest aperture is f2! And this is where I intend to use it. Since you have both, can you shoot something with both lens with this criteria: subject: brick wall, camera on a tripod 12-35 set at f4 x 1 photo 12/2.0 wide-open x same photo 12/2.0 f4 x same photo Wah! hopefully not too much to ask eh?  I already tested long time ago, 12-35 @ f2.8 and f4 will be sharper than Oly 12 @ f2.8 and f4. So the purpose of Oly 12 is the need for f2.0 for low light (or maybe a bit more of background blur) and just for the size and weight advantage. 12-40 is even sharper at 12mm compare to 12-35 from corner to corner.  |

Thanks for the nice info bro! Size is still of paramount importance to me. So 12mm f2.0 it is. Black version of course he he  |

Black version of course he he I forget to stress, unless you are pixel peeping you won't be able to tell which photo is taken with Panny 12-35 and which one by Oly 12. They are both sharp enough for most usage. |

Sony festival/promo now I think, A 6000 about 2.3K only but I rather top up a bit and get EM5 + 12 50 ( weather seal  ) Typo: It's A6000 This post has been edited by Someonesim: Apr 10 2017, 02:21 PM |

QUOTE(Siwon18 @ Apr 12 2017, 09:17 AM) Isn't worth for the price to buy secondhand Olympus EPL-7 without memory card RM1K? Used 2 years time Is this with kit lens or just cam body alone? If combo with kit lens I would say its a fair price. If cam body alone then it's rather pricey, you still have to top up to get a lens. |

I had received my 12/2.0 a couple days ago (after a long wait of nearly 10 days  ), a black handsome unit, and had tested it for AF speed and the clutch manual focus, both working perfectly. The lens looks smaller than I expected, probably because its without the hood. I am looking for after-market lens hood for this baby and not the ori one which costs a bomb. |
