In today’s episode, I respond to your thoughts on cheap camera vs expensive lens, the importance of the photographer over gear, Panasonic rangefinder successors, wide angle zoom comparisons, telephoto lens choices, and real world travel photography setups.

We talk about:
• Why the photographer matters more than the camera or lens
• The demand for a successor to the GX8, GX9, GX85 rangefinder style cameras
• Leaf shutter vs focal plane shutter discussion on the Panasonic LX100
• Panasonic 8-18mm vs 7-14mm wide angle lens comparison
• The versatility of the Panasonic 14-140mm superzoom for travel
• Prime lenses vs zoom lenses for travel photography
• Panasonic Lumix 35-100mm f2.8 and f4-5.6 telephoto options
• Panasonic Leica 9mm f1.7 real world usability
• Smartphone telephoto vs dedicated mirrorless camera performance
• Lumix G100 4K video performance
• Why Micro Four Thirds is still the perfect balance of size, weight, image quality, and price
