What lens next??

[Iain heslop]

Hello I'm in a dilemma, I have a G10 with stock lens 14-42mm, my problem Is I'm saving to buy a aditional lens, which do I get 20mm or 45-200mm or 100-300mm, I would like them all, but cash flow I couldn't possibly unless 6 numbers on the lotto, i'm into street( just snapping away when I'm in town) photography and general holiday snaps.

Use what you've got a bit more, then you'll soon know the gaps you need to fill.

For general walkabout photography, the 14-42 could be all you'll ever need. Very versatile, not much you can't have a go at with that. Additional lenses tend to have a specific applications.

He Speaks the truth. I only have the 14-45mm on my GH1 and all I want to add is the m.ZD 9-18mm.

If you really want to get shallow depth of field the the 20mm would do it but of course you're stuck at 20mm which may not work for you.

You could alternatively hang around for the rumpoured 12-50mm f2.8-3.5 which is somewhere in the pipeline, although it's likely to be expensive.
