Panasonic Leica DG Summilux 25 mm f/1.4 ASPH.
1. Introduction
When Olympus and Panasonic focused their efforts on constructing the Micro 4/3 system, the situation developed in a similar way. A fast 1.4/25 standard was planned as a result of Leica and Panasonic cooperation and, owing to that, in June 2011 a launch of a new lens was officially announced – the Panasonic-Leica DG SUMMILUX 25 mm f/1.4 ASPH.
The lens has just hit the shelves and, courtesy of the Panasonic Poland company, which lent us that instrument for testing purposes, we can present our opinion and impressions after the test.
The Olympus E-PL1 body, used by us, was lent by the Fotozakupy.pl shop.
