As a user of the kit 14-42mm I O and the 14-45mm I naturally wondered if the new 14-42mm II really makes sense. Answer without hesitation: YES. Here a few reasons: > It beats the old 14-42mm in every respect, especially with videos > The new BQ 14-42 is excellent in all parameters image > Very good, natural sharpness, great pleasant colors, first-class resolution > Much smaller and lighter than the other two > Video mode excellent thanks to the new engine; No comparison with the old 14-42 > The video will benefit from the overall visual quality of this lens: sharp, liquid AF.
Together with the G5 and G6 of a wonderfully handy, practical and appealing couple. For this price (here on Amazon) a strong buy recommendation for those, the BQ is really at heart. Both photos than just even with video.
