Testing the Panasonic 14mm 2.5 pancake on the Gh2 with 88mbps hack

Started a lens acquiring binge after getting the Gh2 a month ago.

Started with the Canon Fd 50mm 1.4, Konica 50 1.7, (both great), the Panny 20mm 1.7 (fabulous) and yesterday the Panny 14mm 2.5.

I had apprehensions as the reviews on the web has been fairly mixed on this one, some claiming the resolution is not up to the 20mm 1.7 pancake.

After "walking the dog" today, I must say I'm very impressed. I don't know whether it's resolution is better or worse than the 20mm, but the video looks plenty sharp. It satisfies my need for a low light wide angle lens.

I must also comment on the youtube 1080p picture quality... it's pretty good! Very close to the original wmv I uploaded.

Definitely a thumbs up for the Panny 14mm 2.5

Nice!
You're right, youtube 1080P did an amazing job here.
BTW, can you point me to the 88MB GOP6 AQ3 settings file?

How well does it hold up to higher ISO such as 3200 with higher S.S, such as 1/1600?
 
Steve:

Can't tell ya... I've never tried shooting with it at higher iso's... I avoid any situations that requires 640 iso or more.

I've never shot at high shutter speeds like 1/1600.

Where would I find the settings file?
