Awesome real estate photography lens. There has been no color correction made to this video. It's pretty much as raw as you can get, minus the compression of course and the text. I am filming on a GH5 with a Rode Videomic. Hope this helps!

Bought this lens to get a slightly wider view than my 12-60mm lens. Very pleased as it can be used as a slightly wide normal lens, making it very versatile. May have some slight edge softness, but nothing major. Highly recommended.

It's an excellent performer, but not quite an Editors' Choice. We give preference to the larger Olympus 12-100mm for its longer zoom range, and the Olympus 12-40mm for photogrpahers who want a straight f/2.8 zoom. But if your needs are more in the middle, the 12-60mm might just be the perfect compromise, especially if you like to pack light. Design The 12-60mm covers a 5x range—24-120mm in full-frame terms. Despite the range, and the wide aperture design, it measures just 3.4 by 2.7 inches (HD), weighs 11.3 ounces, and supports 62mm front filters. There's some extension when zooming; the height just about doubles at the 60mm position. The outer barrel is metal and...

As you might expect, the Leica DG Vario-Elmarit 8-18mm f/2.8-4 ASPH is a very decent performer in its category. The image center is very sharp and the borders and corners are pretty good as well - technically at least.
