>>4357532This is a pretty fair evaluation. the 20-60 is surprisingly nice. Probably the best kit lens out there.
L-Mount is frustrating, as you can smell the Leica presence all over everything. It's not as if Panasonic doesn't know how to do small/light. The 12-35 f/2.8 and 35-100 f/2.8's are smaller than the similar Olympus lenses.
Odds are, Panasonic wanted to go to full-frame and chose L-Mount because they could force Leica to open the mount up.
Why? I'm pretty sure Panasonic assembles all the Leica cameras that are not the M-series, and probably makes all the Leica SL/S-Primes. If you're buying an SL series, Q series or Lux series* camera, you're buying something Panasonic made. I'm pretty sure that's why the S9 doesn't have a viewfinder. I don't think Panasonic was so stupid to position the S9 as a ZV competitor. I believe Leica threw a fit at the risk of having something that could crush Q3 sales. Same reason the S1RII is delayed to 2025 (SL3 sales).
It's always going to be madness land in L-Mount because Leica is involved, and likely has a mutual reliance/suicide pact with Panasonic on production.
*(everyone knows this about the Lux series to be fair)
>>4357670You might want to consider the Sigma 105 f/2.8 Macro. Honestly, my favorite lens. I think it is incredible; there's a really sharp jump in IQ with Sigma Art lenses. Hard to explain.
