PANASONIC H-PS45175E Lumix GX VARIO PZ 45-175 mm f/4.0-5.6 IF ASPH Telephoto Zoom Lens

Good zoom range. Silent operation is ideal for video. Takes great pictures.

Nothing

Excellent m43 lens. Light, good glass and non extended telephoto.

Nothing really but you must remember the real length of the telephoto when using it to avoid camera shake. Make sure the shutter speed equals or exceeds the lens mm.

Very light weight and a good zoom range

Wish you could vary the zooming speed

The Power OIS system Panasonic have developed for this lens and their cameras, I have a Panasonic Lumix GX80, are simply amazing for telephoto shooting both stills and video.

Nothing that stands out, sometimes the auto focus struggles at the long end but for the price I paid for this lens it's a great addition to my kit bag.

Powerful zoom, clear optics, great quality images

A bit stuff to change between zooms means if zoomed in and then zoom out quickly can too easily loose the subject.

For it's focal length, 300=600, it is quite small in it's 300mm. setting.

Not used to the use of plastic in it's construction, but, on the upside, this makes the item a lot lighter.

Delightful to use, light but with a quality feel. Auto or manual zoom with ease. internal zooming, nice image quality. excellent focusing. much nicer than the 45-200 which I have had previously.

fairly high aperture numbers, but daytime shooting no problem.

Couldn't get in silver to match camera

Good size to handle. Lack of forward extension assists immensely. Silent operation. Image stability excellent.

Cannot think of any other than cost but then this product offers features and quality not available on alternative specs.

Excellent lens. Compact and light weight. Easy to carry. Unlike the 45-200mm lens, this does not extend or rotate making it much better protected against ingress or dust or condensation.
