Welcome to my review is my first test using the Panasonic Leica 12mm F1.4 micro four thirds prime lens on the Lumix GH7. The Panasonic Leica 12mm is a premium standard wide-angle lens that offers premium image quality and background blur for both video and photographic purposes. This video will explore how well the Leica 12mm F1.4 performs for video and autofocus using the Lumix GH7 and whether or not, i'd buy another one.
