The buttery soft rotating the focus ring and adjust the iris to the lens, causing a fine Click are top notch. Since the images or movies can make a real joy. The manual shift the focus during filming is not to notice on the soundtrack, the aperture adjustment does.
Impressive sharpness and simultaneously possible creamy blur create the illusion of Hollywood cinema.
A Fade from 1.2 to 2.8 brings an increase in the sharpness of photos, but visible to me only in the 10-fold magnification on the monitor.
The delayed auto focus at maximum aperture, which was noticed by chip.de in Issue 5/14, I can confirm, otherwise it goes to fix things.
I use the 42.5 on the GX7. In terms of size, weight and perhaps imaging performance, the lens for this camera almost a number is too large.
