Awesome c-mount zoom lens: Fujinon 7.5-105 f/1.4

[ed_lee83]

Ever since I got the GH2 I started experimenting with all sorts of c-mount zoom lenses to use for event or run 'n gun type work. This is definitely my new favourite, all-round zoom lens. It covers a greater range, fairly fast, has macro function and is acceptably sharp without any apparent aberration. Since it's a broadcast lens and made of plastic, it's much lighter than its older generation, metal counterparts. I'd still take the Fujinon 12.5-75 f/1.2 on night runs though.
It was originally a broadcast lens and most come in B4 mount but somehow I managed to snag one in c-mount so I was able to modify it for proper use on a m4/3 camera and ETC mode.
In terms of c-mount TV/vintage lenses, the quality is as good as they come. But what about comparing to Lumix digital lenses? I've never used any so I can't say... Check out my results from a friend's wedding:

Looks really nice, is this using the ETC function though? I have the GH1 so it would probably vignette on me. I am looking for my first c-mount lens, what would you recommend that's good on the cheap side? I tried to find one like this but no dice.

You can't use the c-mount on the GH1 due to the lack of ETC.
Why are you going for a setup that does not use the full size of the sensor?

I really just would like something to play around with. I read about shooting at 1080 and cropping to 720 so I thought I would just do that. I guess pictures with it would suck though. lol Thanks for putting me in check, I guess I need to look around for something better. I see all of these beautiful Zeiss lenses and old glass I think I will just pick up some of them maybe. I'll get a GH2 when the GH3 comes out and fiddle with the c-mount then.
