    GREAT GLASS, BUT FALLS SHORT OF TRUE LEICA MAGIC.
    4 Stars
    GREAT GLASS, BUT FALLS SHORT OF TRUE LEICA MAGIC.
    This is yet another great Leica lens from Panasonic/Leicas cooperation. It performs great and is capable of some truly great images. It is a special lens, however, I do not believe it is as special as the 42.5mm Nocticron. Where the Nocticron maintains all the magic of true Leica glass, this lens falls a little short... Perhaps 90% of what I would have wanted. It's still a must have on the M43 platform. It would have been nice had Panasonic chosen to include OIS in this lens. At 24mm equivalent it would not have been out of the ordinary to have added this feature.I purchase this lens through Amazon, and it was fulfilled through Amazon. However, the lens that I received was already opened and items were packed differently than a new lens. Since I had ordered an new item, I promptly returned it. I do plan to get a replacement, but at this time they are backordered, so I will be waiting.So is it a must have? It's a nice to have, and certainly a top pick if you are very critical and have the money to spare.
