I have been thinking about upgrading my my Lumix G3 for a while (which i posted about before) as there is something growing/spreading on the lcd screen! The EVF and screen are pretty low res and I want something crisper/sharper especially for macro photography which i've discovered recently and really enjoy. The ISO performance is also pretty ropey and I can't crop all that much without noise rearing it's ugly head (there's even some at base iso, because the noise reduction is horrible so I've turned it down).
I was thinking of keeping my 14 45 kit lens and upgrading the body, but have changed my mind and decided to for a competely new setup. It's the only lens I own so it won't be painful swapping systems. So...what do I get? I'm thinking of a macro/telephoto lens that I can use for insects and bugs etc and some kind of zoom for everyday use (or maybe a wide(ish) prime, similar to my phone. As for body, I don't know. Any suggestions would be great.
My budget is about £1500.
The furthest I've got is this lens - Sigma 105mm f2.8
