Lumix Leica 100-400mm Mkii Review: A worthwhile upgrade?
I was lucky enough to take both versions of the Lumix Leica 100-400mm — or, the Panasonic Leica DG Vario-Elmar 100-400mm f/4-6.3 ASPH. Power O.I.S. to give it its full title for the Google Gods! — To Kenya for two weeks of pure photography. So I have thoughts…

If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably taken a photo, looked at it later, and thought, “Wow, this could’ve been amazing if only it weren’t so grainy/blurry/pixelated.” Maybe it was a high-ISO sort of night shot, or an image that just didn’t hold up after cropping.
