This lens makes a good companion to the Lumix G Vario 12-32mm f/3.5-5.6 zoom, which covers the wide/normal zoom range and is currently bundled with Panasonic’s smaller G-series cameras. We reviewed that lens in January 2014 with the GM1 camera .
This is an incredibly compact 70-200mm equivalent zoom as sharp as some prime lenses throughout the entire focal range. It's amazingly sharp wide open, so a boost in ISO or adjusting exposure compensation in darker settings can still produce great shots without a larger max aperture..
My first additional lens for a Panasonic Lumix camera was purchased to give me more range in still and video photography. With a F4.0-5.6 ASPH it is not a low light lens but for one with a limited budget it will give me an opportunity to expand my shooting experiences.
I first tried this lens on my old GF1 camera with very surprisingly good results. And yes the O.I.S. does work on the GF1. This is where it was going to live as a walk around setup. Then I tried it on my G7 doing videos. It performed magnificently as a video lens. The sharpness is incredible!
I purchased this lens for my wife to use with her GX7. First impressions of the construction performance are good. The lens like the 12-32 Panasonic zoom must be extended with the zoom ring before use. A reminder message is displayed one the LCD/EVF to extend the lens. The autofocus is fast.
Stunning image quality, good IS and dimutive size makes this a great travel lens. Matched with my GM5 it's a great travel kit. Small aperture, a given compromise considering its specifications.
