    Forgot to put the af100 to off.

    lenses for low light

    I have lumix 14-140, tamron 17-50 2.8 and nikon 50mm 1.8. Now for low light does some one have experience with Sigma 30mm 1.4, rokinon 85mm 1.4, rokinon 35mm 1.4 ? I am going to buy 25mm voigtlander or panasonic lense when I have money. Any other options?

    where do you see aperture value with 14-140mm lense?

    Hello friends, with panny 14-140mm lense on af100 I go to manual iris and change the aperture with iris wheel, I can see the light changing on the screen but there is indication at what aperture value I am at. Am I not doing something right or I have to judge by the eye only?
