First project with the Lumix GX 12-35 f2.8 lens. Was the only lens used, and none other was needed or desired.

 
That lens is £300 stirling more than the GH2 body here Dan,not sure i will get one myself though i have over spent on equipment recently,Hard to imagine 35mm was the maximum zoom in that film,great scenes,All the best Chris

I used this lens before it is amazing. Also love your video, excellent location, great colors and just really a nice piece overall. I would present this to travel agency companies and get work off of this if you haven't already.... Nice!

Thanks for looking Chris.

This is a fine lens. However, for 90% of this project the Lumix 14-140 or 14-45 are just as well constructed and produce comparable images. I'm also skeptical of a lens that extends while zooming being truly weather sealed. Several clips in the project were EX mode.

Absolutely. I'm a big fan of the 14mm f2.5 for a small, wide angle, low-light setup. Also, if the GH3 ISO specs are correct, fast lenses will be much less an issue.
 
I haven't been to the North Rim in years. After watching your video, I've made reservations for early October. Thank you for the reminder.
