Which lens next for my Panasonic G2 ?

[upthedons]

I have a panasonic G2 with a 14-45mm lens and I'm thinking of buying a panasonic 45-200mm £230 or a 20mm pancake lens £260

Can someone please explain to me what benefits either of these lenses would bring !!


Thanks

well the 45-200mm goes well with you 14-45mm kit lens giving you a longer focal length and the 20mm f1.7 pancake is a small lens for convenience and also it has a wide aperture for low light photography and shallow depth of field for creative photography.

Hi and thanks for your reply....

Do you think the 45-200mm would be a better addition for a beginner ?

I'm of too Istanbul in a few weeks and I want to get some good shots of the city while I'm there...

yeah I think it would be a better addition especially if your just starting out because really the only gain with the 20mm is the wide aperture so if I was you I'd buy the 45-200mm and then save up and purchase the 20mm in the future.
