GH4 14-140 II vs 14-45+40-174 PZ's for G7

[JeffD7K]

Is there an issue with the 14-140 II? I have a lot of Oly lenses that I could use on a tripod, but want to have stabilization in this range of focal lengths. Does the 14-140 II really have "micro jitters"? I have Mercalli 4.0 will that take care of the issue, or should I just go with the 2 PZ's? I am waiting just bit to see the reviews of real world stuff but the camera looks like a good deal for my needs.

Yes there is an issue of 14-140 II OIS. I have tried to start conversation about it but quite few people complains about that micro jittering.
