After months of thinking it over, I finally pulled the trigger on the Panasonic Leica 25mm f/1.4. It’s the perfect addition to my growing minimal street photography kit, which has been built around the Panasonic GX9 and the stunning 15mm f/1.7. These two lenses alone have been more than enough to handle the vast majority of my work, offering a versatile combination of wide and semi-wide perspectives in a package that’s lightweight, discreet, and powerful. But the 25mm fills a much-needed gap, giving me a fast standard lens that works beautifully for low light, shallow depth of field, and a natural perspective that feels more cinematic and classic.
The GX9 itself continues to surprise me with how capable it is, even in 2025. Its form factor makes it the ultimate everyday camera—unassuming, reliable, and a joy to shoot with. Combined with compact primes like the 15mm and 25mm, it feels like the essence of what Micro Four Thirds is all about: travelling light without compromising on quality. I’ve shot portraits, architecture, night scenes, and everyday life with this kit, and it’s never let me down. Adding the 25mm f/1.4 rounds it out perfectly. There’s a special feeling when your kit feels just right—not too much, not too little. Just enough to create with purpose and freedom.
