Weird Black Bars

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

Still I didn't use it.

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.

Nice lens

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.

Excellent lens

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.

Great performance

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.

Good value, but the Leica 25mm 1.4 has better rendition

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.

About Panasonic LUMIX G 42.5mm f/1.7 Aspherical Power O.I.S. Lens for Micro Four Thirds System

Why settle for anything less than the exceptional when capturing life's most precious moments The Lumix G 42.5mm f/1.7 Aspherical Lens for Micro Four Thirds cameras is a high-quality, advanced portrait lens that delivers unparalleled performance. With its bright, large aperture of f/1.7, this lens excels in low light conditions, allowing photographers to create stunning images with a beautifully blurred bokeh background, emphasizing the subject with clarity and depth.

Crafted for the discerning photographer, the 42.5mm mid-telephoto focal length (35mm camera equivalent: 85mm) is perfect for portrait photography, providing a natural, flattering perspective and excellent subject isolation. The innovative aspherical lens design minimizes distortion and ensures sharp, clear images across the entire frame, making it a reliable choice for both professional and enthusiast photographers.

The built-in LUMIX POWER O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) is a testament to the lens's durability and advanced technology. It swiftly compensates for camera shake, ensuring super sharp shots even in challenging, low-lit situations. Whether you're capturing a candlelit dinner or a twilight cityscape, your photos will be crisp and free from the blur caused by unintended hand movements.

Autofocus is a breeze with the lens's fast auto-focusing drive, which operates at up to 240 fps. This capability ensures seamless communication with the camera's high-speed AF system. The inner focus drive system and stepping motor are both smooth and silent, making this lens equally suitable for video recording, where autofocus noise can be a distraction.

The lens construction is comprised of 10 elements in 8 groups, including 1 aspherical lens, which contributes to its high-quality performance. The durable build and thoughtful design, including a reversible lens hood for convenient storage, make it a practical addition to any photographer's kit.

Compatibility is broad, pairing flawlessly with a range of Lumix cameras such as the DC-GH5, DC-GX850, DC-G85, DC-G85K, DC-GX85, DC-GX8, DC-G7, DC-GF7K, DC-GM5K, and DC-GH4, among others. This ensures that whether you're shooting with an older model or the latest release, you can expect fast, reliable performance.
