Thank you Ollie and this was taken with PL 14-150mm f 3.5 -5.6. This lens is super sharp with great details.
I am not familiar with the Oly lens you mentioned and I hope other members can comment to help you out with your purchase.
I know for sure they do not stack up to the PL 14-150.

The distance was about 15 feet away. This is not a candid and a paid model that I happen to be at the right place and right time and captured her for free. She taught that was one of the student!

For me I would go for the 14-150 mm becos such a range is very flexible. For the last 3 years I shot macros, birds, people, landscape with the PL14-150 lens.

Good luck with your purchase

Cheers and have a nice day

sitting in his small cabinet he allowed me to make this photograph. It's clear that he will get a print.

Thanks for your response Ric. Is the PL 14-150 that you use not the Olympus Micro Four Thirds 14-150? If not who makes it and is it a micro four thirds lens or a lens you use with an adapter? I had assumed it was the Olympus lens but get the impression from your reply that it may be something else. I am not familiar with PL. Is it Panasonic Leica? Which camera are you using in this shot?

Thanks for any info.

[quote=PetitP;69002] Not really but I got myself a near new 10-24mm Nikon lens off Tony for a good price when decided to upgrade to full-frame.

HI Ollie, sorry yes it is the Panasonic Leica lens. It is a 4/3 lens and you will need to buy an adapter as well. More over this lens is expensive, when I bought it 3 years ago it was about Singapore $2300. I use this lens with the GH1.

cheers

Thanks for the info Ric.
I did a search and came across a PL 14-150 M43 lens for $1299.us.
Still pretty expensive.

Back to the drawing board. I think I will wait and check out the new Olympus lenses due out in the spring.
