Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ 45-175mm f/4-5.6 ASPH OIS. - Review / Lens Test
If we take a closer look at the micro-four-thirds lens lineup we will find five telephoto zoom lenses - 2x Olympus and 3x Panasonic lenses including our test candidate. The Panasonic LUMIX G X VARIO PZ 45-175mm f/4-5.6 ASPH. POWER O.I.S. belongs to the new premium d "X" series.

Average photo quality, save your money for a hihger spec lens
The price was right, the lens is relatively lightweight and the construction seems fine. But picture quality is only average. Little detail at higher magnifications. My advice is save your money and plump for a higher spec version.

Great compromise lens
Recently puchased this lens after having a Pansonic GX1 with 42mm 'x' lens for a few months and finding the range just a bit limiting.<br />Have to say coming from the 'point and shoot' back ground rather than the DSLR downgrade route I find this kit works perfectly for me.
Pros:
- Compact
- Lightweight
- Simple Controls
Cons:
- Plastic

Surprisingly nice for the price
This is the first native M4/3 lens that I purchased for my GH5, and it works very well. I mostly use all Canon glass with Metabones on the GH5, and that works great for most of my requirements.

Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ 45-175mm f/4-5.6 ASPH/POWER O.I.S. Lens
A couple of features make this lens stand out from its competitors. The first is the inclusion of the powered zoom drive, which is operated through a lever on the side of the lens barrel. The system is similar to the zooms on most video camcorders.
Pros:
- You want a fast telephoto zoom lens for everyday and travel photography
- You require fast
- precisely controllable zooming
- You want high resolution at all focal lengths
- along with good flatness of field
- You'd like a lens that requires no readjustment when you fit polarisers and graduated filters.

Sweet Lens
I bought this to go with my new Panasonic GH4 camera. I like the 45-175 because it is sharp and does not extend when zooming. Everything is internal.
Pros:
- Durable
- Easy To Use
- Lightweight
- Reliable

Please add support for Dual IS...
Please update the last firmware (2013) to add support for Dual IS stabilization ! You previously annouced a release in Feb 2016, but still nothing... I don't recommend this product until Panasonic releases the update.
Pros:
- Compact
- Easy to use
Cons:
- dual is not available
- firmware not updated since 2013

Great lens for the price
Great lens for the price. I sold it already because I don't use that kind of camera any longer. If you are thinking about buying a cheap telephoto zoom lens, this is a good lens. If you are looking for a great quality lens, you may need to look for something else and be ready to spend more money.
