Used Panasonic LUMIX G Vario 45-150mm f/4.0-5.6 ASPH Lens for G Series Cameras, Matte Black

So far so good! I've used this a few times so far and it hold up extremely well. Need a lens that wouldn't break the bank but filled in the gaps of my other lens lengths and am extremely satisfied. Don't be scared of the mostly plastic construction, I feel like it makes it lighter than some others because of that. Doesn't make me nervous about how it'll hold up over time one bit.

Lens arrived as described, works perfectly on my Lumix G85, surprised and how well the IBIS works with slower shutter speeds even at the long end of the focal length. Also surprised how light and compact this lens is, can't wait to hit the trails and put it to good use.

Lens is great! Super cinematic like. Package came as described, however the filter lens kit came super dirty. I used the pro optic care to clean the lens. That?s probably why it was included in the kit. Overall 3 stars

The Panasonic 45 - 150mm f4 - 5.6 is excellent lens for the C - together with the Panasonic 12 - 60mm f3.5 -5.6, which I also have, covers wide to telephoto. Plus both lenses and the G body fit in a small kit bag along with extra battery and charger.

The photos and videos I have shot the last few days are superb. The lens surpassed my expectation. But the reason I gave it 4 stars is due to the zoom in/out control on the lens. It is not as smooth as other lenses I have used.

I bought a GX85 bundled with 12-32 and 45-150. A couple of years before that, I bought a EM10.i bundled with 14-42 and 40-150. I'm brand agnostics - the 40-150 is very good but the 45-150 is better across the entire focal range.

The shipping was great and quick. The LUMIX g85 I has a sturdy frame and the lenses that cane with it are great.

This is a very nice budget lens, not amazing in low light but in day light the zoom range is very very nice. If your on a budget and can’t buy high speed telephoto primes this is a very worthy choice.

It’s a basic kit lens. Good lighting will get you decent photos

I’ve even in digital photography for more than two decades and was a bit skeptical about the Lumix 45-150, given the bargain it is! Comparing the image quality with the fine 12-60 that came with came with the Lumix GMC 85 showed that the longer zoom was worth every penny.

Good stabilization but not as sharp as some of my cheaper primes. Think typical kit lense. Good lens at a good price as opposed to a great lense at an expensive price. Super range in a small body.

Pretty good in good light conditions.

I bought this for my wife who is just returning to photography after many years, and has settled in Micro 4/3 as her format of choice. She really likes the lens, after figuring out the basics has really started to “dig in” and get down to business. Great price to start her exploring, will step up to faster lenses to replace this as her needs warrant, for now this lens is “just right”.

It is small for its focal length range and focuses relatively quickly on my GX85. Dual IS is nice. Makes for great dual stabilized video. It's sharp enough for the average kit lens user. I think it's a good match for a small M43 body. Can't complain for the price.

This is a great lens for those close-up video shots. I use it with a Lumix G7 for shooting 4K video. The color and contrast is superb. As a bonus it's nice a compact and light enough for use on a gimbal.

Have had this lens a month now and it is great. The 90mm @f4 makes it a good portrait lens and the long end is long. Stabilazition is very good especially on my body stabilized GX85. Not the fastest but quite sharp throughout the range. Check out the test at slrgear.com. Slightly larger then the 35-100mm but I believe the range is more usefull at the expense of 1/4 inch. Highly recommended for the $.

It is a very compact for a telephoto zoom with stabilization. The focusing is fast and silent making it pretty decent for shooting video especially when using with my GX85 In body image stabilization. Even at tele zoom end, the Dual IS performance make it is to use at lower shutter speeds in low light.

Great little all purpose lens. It can be used for sports, portraits and semi macro. Very sharp and fast focus. Works well for video also. An excellent companion to the 14-42 kit lens. Just add a 25mm fast prime and your all set!
