Leica 10-25/1.7 - an impressive cinema grade lens for Micro 4/3

[Karim D. Ghantous]

"Videographers have found their holy grail, stills shooters could be seriously tempted, and Micro 4/3 continues as a highly compelling format."

The one thing I don't like about this lens is the field curvature. This would only really matter if you're shooting certain types of subject matter, so it's not a total deal breaker. But it's a serious tool for professionals, it seems. Personally I'd go for a smaller & slower lens. YMMV.

Oh man, that's hot. I wonder if there's a comparable long zoom from Leica for M43. I could see going that way and losing the Metabones unit. I've been wanting to get into Leica for a while.
