Wow, David. Years after following your Lumix/Panasonic videos (and now some years after your passing) I suddenly find our interests aligned again, as an e-Brompton is definitely on my radar for a new year purchase. If your loved ones are still reading these comments, I'm sure they'd be happy to know that your opinions and content creation skills are still having an impact even today!

Right now, canon full frame equivalent is much smaller with than the older canon combinations. Canon rf 800mm f11 + 2xteleconverter + canon r8 Yes m43 is smaller but it's now comparable weight and price even more! Not to mention, FF is superior given the same focal length, because of the bigger sensor. In good light, they can be almost equal. What's interesting is, there is now 150-500 lens for m43 and combined with 2x, it surpasses canon's combination. But then, there is 1200mm etc for canon for some people. Ultimately if you want to push it, just do digiscoping. While nikon p1000 laughs at all of these in compact form. The point seems to be, the more expensive the gear, the more light it gathers, which increases the usable time-range of the day when it starts getting dimmer and dimmer. P1000 etc can only be used in bright daylight.

This camera is selling on the used market for more than twice the price, of when it was new. The LX100 II costs way more, if you could find one. R.I.P. David Thorpe, we all miss you!

I had this lens for few years. It's beautiful but m43 is not really for shallow depth of field.

Its October 2024. After months of study, I have decided to purchase this particular zoom lens today. David's review here was the icing in the cake. Bless you, David.

Sweet. This guy sounds like the films we saw in school in the 1970’s. 💁🏻‍♀️

Is the portrait quality as good as the m.zuiko 45mm f1.2 pro?

life is such crap. I can't believe how cruel our fate is. Truly sad to find out. A good Englishman and brave till the end. Salute to you, sir.

that will help me a lot. thanks man

RIP David. I'm still telling ppl to stop down to F8 for best sharpness with this lens thanks to you :(

David, I don't know if you can read this where you are up there, but your review helped me to trade my 7-14 Pany for this lens. Love your reviews. Miss you.

no nonsense review, many thanks! pity it's so old and 720p only :)

what app did you use?

Great advice

really missed a camera review by David, RIP.

Thank you, David🙏 I'm getting this one too.

It is 2024. I am using this video to understand my GX8 focusing. David you were a generous man. We all miss you.

i used x5r zenmuse it has dji 15 mm 1.7 but it has lots of ca. i am looking for a quality lens to put on this camera. which one do you recommend. this panasonic summilux 15mm or olympus zuiko 17 1.8

I discovered Mr. Thorpe's channel on a recommendation at the same time as his death. I am saddened for his family to whom I offer my humble condolences. I thank at the same time his family and Mr. Thorpe for their generosity in allowing his posthumous contributions to continue. My sincere friendships, as well as to his community of followers.

Thank you for your legacy. I still keep coming back to your videos again and again. I hope the algorithm keeps them up! In silent tribute, L.

Miss this chaps wonderful reviews, I was quite delighted to stumble upon this today. Thanks David rest easy amongst the stars

If it doesn’t feel good I’m not going to use it. I’ll stick with my G9

I've got two. One is in a plastic baggy in parts after I watched another KZbin video that inspired me to attempt to fix the stabilization problem. I bought a second without the problem which works fine, but the shutter release button was missing and the upper dial lacks friction. It still gives me great results but I like my EPL6 more. I am hoping to come across another EPL5 which needs a simple fix like a new screen or broken battery door which I can cobble back together with my baggy of bits.

Hi, do u still have the bag? And if u do, are u willing to sell it?

Just like gx9, it was a WTF release. For g95, people expect an upgrade g85, for gx9, expect an upgrade gx8. But both failed.

this is heartbreaking. <3

David is missed big time - loved his vids....

Watching this in September 24. RIP and thank you ❤

With only MF you can’t use built in focus stacking. If you can afford it the Olympus 90mm does x2 and has AF

Rip dude

Thanks David. I just picked up one of these. I miss you.

Its elivis lens. When he was right into eating doughnut burgers

Dear david! In my heart you are still around❤

this might be one of the best reviews of any product I have ever seen… the way he talks is amazing, he’s so well worded! You can also hear the years of experience this man has. Great review! I’m so sad to hear he passed away… RIP 😢

I have just started following you and liked this post so much. I loved your reasoning and I getting closer to making the purchase of an Olympus 40-150mm f2.8 lens second hand from a reputable retailer.

Excellent edutainment 👍🏻

this is an excellent summation

You are remembered still ! This video i did not know …. ! Only the videos of the cameras . ! Thanks 🙏🏽

I am literally now just discovering what happened to Mr. Thorpe. As I ran into one of his videos and saw the last one was from three years ago, so I checked his channel to see if there were any new ones and that’s when I discovered what happened and just wanna pass on my condolences and say I always enjoyed his videos and reviews and it definitely helped me select equipment through my video and photography journey. He will be missed he is missed.

<3 <3

Are there any reviews of this camera for owners that do not understand pphotography jargon?

I feel like I’m back in my grade school classroom watching a film from 1960. I mean this in a good way. Somehow quite comforting. 💁🏻‍♀️

Really miss you......😢

David does the best camera reviews. Like watching a BBC wild life documentary, but for cameras instead of animals.

hi, is the G90 a good camera to record 3 hour videos continuously?

As honest and straight to the point as they come! ✨👌🏻🏆

I bougth a M II last year on the used maket and I am not dissapointed. I also have the MI and I enjoy the M II better.
