There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Despite some reviewers questioning the efficiency of the OIS capabilities, my personal experience is that it works very well *with the potential* of producing sharp hand held shots down to 1/10th of a second at full zoom, a feat that I would not have believed was possible but have meta-data to confirm. (Photo w/notes attached to lens main page)
It's small size and general competency make it an ideal component of an *relatively* inexpensive but capable travel or walk around kit when paired with a 14-45mm Lumix zoom and a Panasonic G Series M4/3 camera. It seems to me that the Panasonic "kit lenses" represent some of the better performing budget minded lenses available and it would appear that most photographers in its target market would be very pleased with a non-defective copy of this lens. Why some enthusiast, purist or pro wannabes would be first attracted to buy and subsequently apply unrealistic performance expectations to an under $300 zoom, (I got mine for $250) and dismiss the lens as a poor performer puzzles me. Those individuals would be better advised to look at some of the remainder of the Lumix lens line bearing the Leica badge. As it stands, The 45-200 appears to be a bargain when price/performance is a determining factor.

It's perfect! Quality is sharp, autofocus is SILENT, the focus wheel has two modes (if you turn it fast, it moves the focus fast -- turn it slow and it moves the focus slow ... and it seems quite consistent so there's no guessing on how it'll focus). I can't believe this lens is as cheap as it is with the quality it has for the image.
It's lightweight and quite small which makes it a "cute" lens. What's also nice is that it takes 46mm filters like many other Micro Four Thirds lenses.
One thing to note is that it's plastic and NOT weather sealed but at under $150, it makes sense that it's like this. Neither of these things affect its quality and I got it for indoor interview shooting anyway.
If you've got a Micro Four Thirds and looking for a quick, easy, high quality, and cheap lens, go the nifty fifty route with this 25mm primr Pannyboi. You won't be disappointed.
The only downside is really the fact that the minimum focus distance is quite long but I decided all think considered its really a 5-star
I've been doing test shots with the lens since it arrived, and I think it's safe to say that any problems with focusing or unsharp images have been fixed. Hand-held results at full 200mm zoom, with the stabilization turned on, show good sharpness throughout on images taken from 50 feet away. Enlarging up small segments of those images and comparing those taken with and without IS turned on show a significant difference. I'm impressed. I'm also impressed at how fast, and how quietly this lens focuses, especially when compared to the autofocus Nikon G lenses used on my D70 and D80. There's no hesitation or hunting. Push the shutter release lightly and boom, you're in focus.
Some reviewers have commended on the relative bulk of this lens in comparison to the 45-150 and 45-175 lenses, and while it is somewhat bigger, it's still very manageable. Cup your left hand under the lens, grasp the camera with your right (for right handers) and it's a very comfortable package- again, comparing this to my old Nikon setup, it's much smaller and lighter than the D70 or D80 with the standard 17-70 zoom.
Another nice feature of this lens is the included light shade, which can be stored in reveres position right on the lens, much like my old 105/2.5 and 135/3.5 Nikkors. It takes up very little space in my camera bag (currently a Lowepro Stealth Reporter D200 AW Camera Bag ) and does a great job at preventing flare. The included lens bag protects somewhat against damage but I'm keeping mine in a neoprene lens bag that provides a bit more protection.
In short, then, a versatile telephoto at an attractive price. Combined with the standard 17-45mm zoom it should cover 99% of all your needs with a M34 camera.
Top reviews from other countries
While this isn't my favorite lens (that would be the Olympus 45mm/1.8), this is currently a very close second. This is an excellent lens, especially for low light. The only reason why this isn't my favorite lens is that for my particular uses, the 45mm is a more useful focal length. For most people, however, the 25mm is probably a way better focal length. I don't believe you can get a faster lens than this one at such a low price.
The Good Parts
* Inexpensive at just over $200
* Good all around focal length for most people
* Sharp and good color
* Metal mount
* Fast F1.7 aperture means you can use a lower ISO in low light
* Good AF speeds (your mileage will vary, depending on the camera you are using)
* Comes with lens hood
* Lightweight
* Good bokeh
* Well made
Could Be Better
* A little chunky (volume-wise, it's bigger than my 45mm)
