Hello everybody. I’m planning to get my first camera body and lenses but I’m not quite sure on what lensens to get. I think I’ll get a LUMIX DMC-GF1 which I can find for fairly cheap prices so I can spend most of the money for some good lenses....
Nothing new to contribute in terms of focal length, but be very wary of a thing called crop factor. The camera you’re looking at has a 2x crop factor.
Most of the lens focal lengths in this thread are popular full frame (1x crop factor) options (like 35mm, 55mm, etc). You also got some APS-C recommendations (the 18-55), and one or two micro four thirds recommendations.
If you were to buy a 50mm, for example, you probably won’t get what the recommender intended. You would need a 25mm lens to get a similar level of magnification.
Unfortunately, it’s going to be hard for you to dig through the recommendations here and guess what sensor format the recommender made it for.
