The wide Olympus (18-36mm FFE) zoom is a distant second and the third, the Panny long (90-400mm FFE) zoom mostly gathers dust.<\/p>\n<p>I have a strong belief in not owning things I do not use, so the other day I took the long zoom to San Francisco with the sole aim of taking &#8216;long&#8217; pictures, along with the resolution that if the day was a failure, the lens would be sold.  For me anything over 35mm FFE is &#8216;long&#8217; so when using a 90-400mm lens I really need to think differently.  There&#8217;s no thought of switching between the long lens and the other two; the visualization process is so different that my tired brain cannot cope with yet another set of variables.<\/p>\n<p>So I set about my task by thinking and seeing &#8216;long&#8217;, and a few good things cropped up on a late afternoon with light to die for.  Focal lengths shown are Full Frame Equivalents (FFE).<\/p>\n<p>Guess I&#8217;ll be keeping that <a href=http:\/\/pindelski.org\/Photography\/2009\/12\/18\/panasonic-45-200-mm-lens-for-the-g1-part-i\/ target=_blank>Panasonic 45-200mm<\/a> lens for a while longer.  Funnily enough, on returning home I found that I had accidentally switched the OIS anti-shake button to &#8216;Off&#8217; but for the most part lucked out.  At 400mm FFE, handholding without OIS becomes something of a challenge.  On a related note, the G3&#8217;s sensor, some two stops finer grained than the one in my earlier G1, allows the use of faster ISO settings &#8211; and shorter shutter speeds &#8211; without degrading quality, a significant advantage with longer lenses.  800 ISO is just fine, and 1600 ISO works well at a pinch, both allowing high quality 18&#8243; x 24&#8243; prints to be made.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reaching out.
