Other fairly fast prime lens options include the T/1.4 Veydra Mini Primes, from 12mm to 85mm. The Voightlanders and SLar Magic MFT lenses are very soft wide open, and f/0.94 is all out useless except for mood shots, which are nice. Most super fast lenses below f/2.0 are not sharp wide open, this is the Leica advantage, as their lenses, including the Panny Leica are typically sharp enough wide open. So meter your typical scene, and see what f/stop you typically might need at ISO 800, 1/48 sec (24fps shutter speed). They need a minimum level of light, and thenPocket/amicro are a native ISO 800 camera.

Also, the Olympus is Auto or real manual focus (not focus by wire in the case of EF lenses), and is parfocal.īM cameras, including the Pocket camera are not low light/night vision sensor cameras. I looked at both lenses when the Sigma camera out, it had too many issues, not really a Parfocal lens (some copies are close), and the image quality from the Olympus 14-35 is better in my opinion for video and Cine shooting, almost magical. The Olympus FT zoom will require a Panasonic or Olympus FT/MFT adapter which is a lot less than a Speed Booster. If you need a fast zoom in the 18-35 range, do what I did, and get a used (or new) Olympus Four Thirds 14-35 f/2.0 zoom, which has a more cinematic IQ than the harsh Sigma zoom (which does not work well with a Speed Booster combo, it is almost too sharp, causing mor'ie). I would look at getting a Olympus Pro f/2.8 zoom or the new Panasonic Leica 12-60 f/2.8-4 zoom which are MFT mount, no adapters required and are a better fit for the Pocket camera size wise, and these lenses have excellent IQ also. No, any EF mount lens is going to require some type of smart adapter, as the Pocket camera is MFT mount only! While the Sigma 18-35 is a nice lens, it is not the best choice today for the Pocket camera.
