p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Impressions of the Panasonic 42.5mm f/1.7


Hey, y'all. I recently got to spend some time with what I'm calling the "Nocticron Lite" and wrote up a quick post on it here: http://lenses.reviewed.com/features/panasonic-425mm-f17-asph-power-ois-lens-sample-gallery

Here are a few samples to whet the appetite (all basically SOOC JPEGs, full res thru link):

You've got me by a while...I've got a lineup I'm working through...probably won't make it to this lens until August or so.

Thanks for the first impressions. Looks like a virtual wash between this and the Oly 45...*maybe* a bit more character with this one, but I might just fooling myself.

I'm not a fan of the bokeh on some of the shots, similar to the Oly 45. I won't be selling my Noct any time soon (apparently I like expensive blurriness)

Yeah, I also own the Oly 45 and don't see anything here that really makes me consider selling it. But it's nice to have two options, regardless.

Will be interesting to see how the two lenses compare in pure resolution once we get them into the lab.
