Many are considering the new GF80mm f/1.7, but if you already have a GF110mm f/2 there isn’t a lot of incentive to get the GF80mm f/1.7. It’s interesting that the older GF110mm f/2 focuses silently while the new GF80mm f/1.7 is a bit loud when focusing, but the GF80mm f/1.7 does have a unique look to it that might make it a must-have for some like the GF110mm f/2 was a must-have when it came out.
We should see a lot of comparisons with the GF110mm f/2 coming in the future as more photographers get their hands on the GF80mm f/1.7, but photographers haven’t had much time with the GF80mm f/1.7. If I didn’t already own a GF110mm I would likely get the GF80mm due to its smaller size and unique character, but since I own a GF110mm f/2 I will wait for the GF80mm f/1.7 to go on sale to pick one up.
