Hi all,
Used to be semi active here, and had many cameras over the years starting with a Nikon D90, then kids came along and needed something smaller. So my last and current camera was a GX80 with 15mm f1.7 and 12-60 f3.5/5.6
I’m thinking about getting back into my camera gear but without spending hours upon hours editing shots in lightroom like I used to. I moved all my photo catalogue over to Apple photos years ago.
Not wanting to part with the GX80 as I still want a fairly small setup but am thinking about changing lenses.
I’m contemplating selling both lenses and picking up a 12-60 f2.8/3.5 for my everyday lens and then possibly a 45-150 down the line if I need extra reach at any point. My photography is only every my wife, children and dog but that means I need good (ish) low light performance and decent autofocus.
I’m going to stick the slower 12-60 on over Christmas and see how I get on indoors with that slower lens, to see if I really want to upgrade to the 2.8 version.
Any thoughts on the faster lens?
Does what I’m planning make sense or should I just stick with what I have?
