  • Hi, Does anyone know if "manual focus clutch" means it becomes real manual focusing, when you push the pedal down? That would make this a great lens for stills and video if this was the case. thanks!

  • 0.3X magnification is really useful! Much higher than 12-35's 0.17x

  • First post updated with info.

  • On the other hand the E-M1 have separate mic in

  • stills only on the gx7 right? at least until firmware update.

    I'm looking forward to the reviews of this puppy though, that's for sure. no OIS at 40mm isn't really a deal breaker anyway.

  • But without OIS I'm not sure it will be worth it over the panasonic

    Hmm. Someone forgot GX7?

  • Looks really nice, "Pro" even, but without OIS I'm not sure it will be worth it over the panasonic. Great on an olympus though I'm sure.
