Well, to each his own. Lengthy post-processing is not my cup of tea, to put it 
mildly. I prefer to have a good image to begin with.

I am in Munich right now, carrying the GX80 and four lenses: the 2.5/14mm, the 
1.7/20mm, the 2.8/30mm and the 35-100mm zoom. Once of the disadvantages of 
superzooms is the limited maximum aperture. I was out and about last night, and 
the smallest aperture I used was f2.8. Given that I am going to be in meetings 
all day today and tomorrow, most of my photography will be after dark, so I 
suspect the first two lenses mentioned are going to be used the most.

Cheers,
Nathan
