Same thing.
Black Chested Buzzard Eagle
WIKI
They are called different things in different countries.
I was lucky enough to see one in the wild in Santiago a couple of years ago.

Then no - "Levi" is in the Biggleswade area - he's also a Chilean Blue Eagle.
Nice shots of this majestic creature though

Very nice
Is that "Levi" ? If it is I've met him - magnificent bird.

Having seen Pete Castles' excellent slide show presentation on photography last weekend, and chatting to him and Shaun Harrison afterwards, I was surprised by their camera of choice. The good old Canon Powershot G5. The pics were brilliant, with great features for us anglers ( flip round screen/ ir remote). AND they are cheap. I bough one the following day on eBay , mint for £38!! Bargain! Spend what you save on a tripod and accessories

I've also got young kids and getting quality pictures of them was a big factor in getting a decent camera, I'm also looking at better performance in low light so the zoom isn't really in my thinking, there is a f2.8 zoom but out of my budget unfortunately.
I might get the sigma 30 for now then see how I get on with it. But the small size of the Panasonic 20 does appeal to me....

hi Duggs. Ive been using the lumix G series for about 3 years. I started with the g3 and the 14-42 kit zoom. mine was also a dissapointment. Apparently the 14-45 older kit lens was much better. I also had the 45-200 but I was given that.
I joined the Lumix forum and loved the look of the photos taken with the primes. As I have a young child I wanted good indoor photos. And liked the idea of a compact setup, So I bought the 20mm pancake for £220. As I was on a limited budget this was all i had for the first year or so.
I used it for indoor and outdoor even as a walk around on holiday. its true you do just move around more. but the photos blew the kit lens away. Yes the lenses cost a lot but I could now sell my 20mm second hand for nearly the same as I paid for it. as the price has risen. as opposed to my G3 body and kit lens that I just sold for £100.00.
So they are more of an investment than the bodies. the new 14-140 that panny recently launched is a great lens and images are near on as sharp as the 20mm and the olympus 45mm ( which i now also own). Just not as fast.
I got a deal at christmas with amazon and panasonic cashback where i paid 379.00 for G6 with 14-140. the lens sells for 400+ on its own. I mention this as you may may find them cheaper as people split the package and keep the part they want.

It is a Panasonic 14-42mm f3.5-5.6. I think both lenses are now on version 2.
