When I first bought the LUMIX G VARIO 14-42/F3.5-5.6 II lens, I was disappointed because I didn't know it did not have OIS (which is why I haven't been using it often). But, with the in-body OIS of the GX8, the 14mm has been saved from the "banish to fleaBay" list. It's a very sharp and fast lens, and is now the ideal GX8 companion for my nocturnal sub rosa photo safaris. :)

Got it today, have been waiting for a camera like this for a long time. Leica should forget the M and introduce something like this much earlier, leave M9..10 to continue the range finder M blood line la.

DIY Lens mount conversion, results (see below for "how to")
Here is the completed Minolta 58mm f/1.2 modification mounted on my Sony Alpha DSLR. Originally the lens is for the Minolta MC mount, which can not adapted to the Minolta AF mount "passively", i.e. any adapter would need to have optical elements to maintain infinity focus (at the expense of image quality). I managed to replace the mount on the lens itself by substituting an M42 to Minolta AF adapter for the original mount. After readjusting focus on the lens, it now aligns perfectly with the original distance scale, all the way to infinity.
While I did this for the Sony/Minolta AF system, the guide to the modification (see below) applies to any current DSLR system for which you can get a suitable adapter, e.g. an M42 to Canon EOS or a glassless M42 Nikon adapter can be used.
The lens was chosen because there is no f/1.2 lens available for the Minolta AF mount and most other f/1.2 lenses available tend to be either extremely expensive, hard to find, and/or far inferior (e.g., the Tomioka 50mm f/1.2 for M42 is not very good in my opinion). This lens, on the other hand, cost me about €100 and has bokeh worthy of legends. It is not the sharpest of lenses wide open (still, quite decent), but it has very pleasant image characteristics and is a lot of fun to use.
I recently updated this modification by installing a microchip which identifies itself as a 60mm f/1.1 lens (closest setting available at the moment). The chip was kindly provided by James Lao, who makes custom chips and M42 to Minolta AF adapters. If you use an electric adapter for the mount, the exact same guide can be used, or you can later install the microchip on the adapter (as I did).
With electronics the focus confirmation and in-camera anti-shake both work with this beast. (Focus confirmation doesn't depend on reported focal length, and for anti-shake the slight difference doesn't really matter that much.) The in-camera anti-shake of Sony DSLRs makes this a low-light photography marvel.
See the pictures beginning from here for my complete writeup on doing the modification. This method can also be applied to some other lenses, and certainly for converting to camera mounts other than Minolta AF.

Photo 99 out of 365
The reflection in his lens is a sunset :)
Only 1 more photo and i'll have reached 100 for this project! Only 265 to go!
Looking back on my old photos from the beginning of this project, I can tell that I've been learning a lot since day 1. :) I would definitely recommend to someone thats starting out with photography to do this project.
I saw this man sheltering from a bitter wind in a telephone box, several days after Christmas. He may have been homeless - I'm not quite sure - and I wondered how he had spent the "festive" period.
I have decided to participate in a 52 week challenge rather than a 365 this year. A 365 is too much pressure at this time and a 52 week challenge still gets me shooting. If any of you are on facebook and are interested in this one or just want to do it here then why not check it out. 52 week challenge
