Review Summary

The lens has a weird double black bar on the videos, as well as a scratch on the glass of the lens which was not mentioned either. Seems like a great lens but my experience is bad with this specific seller </3

I didn't even seen the lens! I ordered it for my daughter, who is living in another country. She have received it, but she didn't utilize it yet. In December we will get together and I will be able of doing a deep testing of the lens and only then I will be in the condition of writing a serious rating of it.

An excellent basic all around ( 50mm equivalent ) lens for either Panasonic or Olympus micro 4/3 cameras.

The lens works as intended. I like that it's lightweight and can be brought around anywhere. Love that it came with a set of freebies that I otherwise wouldn't have gotten anywhere else

I wanted a prime in this range for portrait and distance photography. This one seemed to fit the bill, it fit my cameras and was slightly cheaper than the equivalent Olympus. I was pleasantly surprised how compact it is, light and small.

very sharp and fast, really versatile with 31 cm minimum distance and clear details it allows macro focusing as well as being a great portrait lens. The size is idea and totally useful for many situations indoors and out. Both auto and manual focusing work quite well and it has a quiet motor for videos.

I had this and the 40mm pancake lens in my wishlist. Recently there was a $100 discount on this lens and for $150 I went for this one. I can not compare it to the pancake but for the price I paid I am very happy. It is sharp wide open and relatively small and light.

Pros: Lighter weight, closer focus, cheaper than the Panasonic Leica (PL) 25mm F1.4. Con: Color rendition, contrast, image fidelity and sharpness not as great and the PL 25mm F1.4. Even: Autofocus speed for both are about the same, not enough difference to choose one over the other. Good value, but if absolute image quality is needed, get the PL 25mm F1.4.

The Perfect Lens for Portraits
This bright large aperture F1.7 lens pulls in a lot of light and produces a beautiful bokeh background defocus effect for more impressive, creative shots. Together with the 42.5mm mid-telephoto focal distance (35mm camera equivalent: 85mm), this lens is ideal for portraits.
Optical Image Stabilizer - LUMIX POWER O.I.S
Large aperture lenses produce a desirable shallow depth of field effect, but even a slight handshake can cause out-of-focus problems. However, the LUMIX POWER O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) compensates quickly for super clear shots even when shooting in low-lit situations.
Fast Auto Focusing - 240 fps Drive Capability
The lens and camera communicate at up to 240 fps to take maximum advantage of the cameras high-speed AF system. Its inner focus drive system and stepping motor is smooth and silent during both photo and video recording.
Lens Construction
10 elements in 8 groups, 1 aspherical lens
Additional Features
Portrait lens with a beautiful bokeh background defocus effect.
Perfect for low light photography with a bright F1.7 aperture.
Built-in powered optical image stabilizer reduces hand shake blur.
Fast auto focusing drive keep pace with all LUMIX G cameras.
