I have just been on a birding trip where I got severely challenged by the low light abilities of my FZ18. As a replacement I am contemplating the GH2, which seems to fit the bill with size and weight relatively well while having an improved high iso performance compared to what I have. Am I correct so far?
Next question is what about lenses? the 100-300 would be a must, and I hope it holds up in sharpness etc. But what else? The 14-42 seemed to disappoint according to DPreview, while the 14-140 which I have seen as an alternative kit lens did get OK press. I like to be able to take insect pictures with my current setup, would the combination of 14-140 and 100-300 serve me well there? Would I need another lens for macro?
thanks for any comments and thoughts
