Hello, I just received my new GH3 (body only) from BC branch of a local Canadian store.
I am now in hunt for tips from those who have had the experience with GH3 and its predecessors. What are your lenses and what are they best for? What settings/lenses would you use for indoor interviews with and without support pro lighting? Also, I am buying a new lens to start mainly for videos and indoors but that can still take nice photos. Sigma 19 and 30 mm/f2.8 have been suggested. Any other thoughts? In my area the store mainly has Panasonic lenses like 20mm/f1.7 and 25mm/f.1.4. How are these ones? For those with zoom, which one would be the best and most economic?
I have to add my budget for lens is now around $500. So I cannot afford to buy more than one. Would it be more functional for me to get one that is not fixed zoom so I have a wider range? Even though I mainly need interviews, I'll still want to shoot outside too. Ideas of that price range?
I'd appreciate if you also share your favorite video by you or from others taken by GH3. In other words, let's talk about the GH3
Thank you.
