I received this lens for free when I purchased my GX85. I was originally looking at getting the Panasonic 35-100mm f/2.8 as I like that focal length for a standard telephoto. So far I have not found any reasons to upgrade to that lens yet.

Enjoying some simple explorations so far, looking forward to traveling with this lens. It's got a sturdy feel/build. The only negative I could imagine is that it isn't the fastest lens on the market, but then again, there's a major price jump for that.

I bought this lens for the long reach and the mega O.I.S. and to round out my mini-system. I have 2 Lumix GF3Ks and will soon buy another Lumix camera body with a viewfinder. I own 8 Lumix cameras now but the interchangeable one's are the best.

Very surprised that it beats up my Canon (not full frame). Focusing fast. Quality solid. Happy with purchase.

A step up from the kit lens for zooming.

Great zoom lens for the money

This is the perfect lens for my first used mirrorless Panasonic. I like to carry this lightweight camera and lens in my purse for those "I wish I had my camera moments".

One of the best purchases I have made for my camera.

Great lens for my GF3. Affordable too

I know its a cheaper lens, but the kit lens was sharper cropped in at 60 than this is at 150 in my tests today.
