Hi Richard!
It was the Panashiba GH2, with 14~140mm and 100~300 zooms. I think it's the
14~140 you see in the image. I must confess, I was very impressed both with
the sharpness and the high ISO performance. OTOH, Howard tells me that the
50~200 (I think) is sharper than the 100~300.
He also had the Fuji X-100 and X-Pro-1. Although rangefinders are not "my
thing", I was very impressed with the quality of build in both body & lenses
and with the optical performance of the Fujinon lenses. They certainly need
not take a back seat to anybody; though only primes are available at this time.
Next year, we'll see how they do with Zooms.
(I'd let Howard answer for himself, but he's on the road.)
David.
