good review!

Full manual lens, no communication with the camera body is mentioned as an advantage – and disadvantage, twice! I don’t think overall this could be categorized as a benefit or a problem anyway – this is highly manual lens and those who get it know what they are getting themselves into! they’ll certainly do after reading your review!

Hi Mike,
Thanks you for all of these great videos. I am very enthused about getting my GH2 as it will be my video leap into DSLR territory. I was wonder where can I get one of these Nokton 25mm lenses.I have a found numerous videos on VIMEO shot from that lens and they all look amazing but I can’t seem to find it on B&H. Also do I need a micro 4/3rds adapter for that lens?

Thanks,
Jason -

it really depends on what you will be shooting. a good standard outfit would be 14-140mm, 7-14mm, 20mm 1.7 or Nokton 25mm and the lensbaby if you are into that kind of look

Hi,
Thanks, for this post. Very informative. I have a couple questions.

Will you need any adapter to mount any of the lenses on the camera.

If you were to pick 3 to 4 lenses that you need or consider a must have, what will they be? I will use my gh2 mostly for shooting videos.

Thanks!
