Hi Everyone,
I'm buying a Panasonic GH3 and I'm confused as to what lenses are available to use with it (besides the Lumix lenses Panasonic lists as compatible).
It's a "Micro Four Thirds" mount. I'm assuming this is smaller than a Four Thirds Mount? I have a hard time finding any lenses from Sigma, Olympus, etc that have a "Micro Four Thirds" mount.
I understand you can purchase adapters to use different lenses. Does anyone know the details of this? What type of lenses would that open up to me?
The APO 50-150mm F2.8 EX DC OS HSM from Sigma looks PERFECT for what I'm trying to do. I'll be using it primarily for video, indoors, at sports events, possibly in low lighting situations. I was at Best Buy yesterday and looked at the T4i with the 18-135mm kit lens on it. I zoomed in all the way and it seemed to be slightly under what I would need - so I'm assuming 150 is right where I'd like it to be.
Any advice/help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
