Panasonic Lumix G X Vario 12-35mm f/2.8 II ASPH POWER O.I.S. Lens

One of the things that makes Panasonic a power force in the photographic industry is the ability to continue to improve, even where it is difficult to see what improvement is necessary. The Panasonic Lumix 12-35mm f2.8 II ASPH. Power OIS Lens is a perfect example of this, a rejuvenation of a popular existing model with various improvements to build, performance and compatibility with the dual IS 2 of Panasonic’s own GH5 Micro Four Thirds camera. What remains is the wide to normal zoom range and fast constant aperture, leaving a very versatile everyday lens

Overview

A versatile zoom covering wide-angle to portrait-length perspectives, the Panasonic Lumix G X Vario 12-35mm f/2.8 II ASPH POWER O.I.S. Lens is designed for Micro Four Thirds cameras, where it provides a convenient 24-70mm equivalent focal length range. A constant f/2.8 maximum aperture affords consistent performance throughout the zoom range, and benefits working in difficult lighting conditions as well as enables greater control over depth of field. The sophisticated optical design employs a series of aspherical, low dispersion, and high refractive index glass elements to control a variety of aberrations and distortions for sharp, clean image quality and a Nano Surface Coating has also been applied to reduce ghosting and flare. POWER Optical Image Stabilization minimizes the appearance of camera shake to suit handheld shooting, and this O.I.S. system is also compatible with Dual I.S. for enhanced stabilization performance. Additionally, the lens also features a durable all-metal housing that is dust, splash, and freezeproof to enable its use in harsh climates.

Lucy ★★★★★

I’ve been using this lens for a few weeks and the manual focus clutch is a lifesaver when switching between autofocus and fine-tuning. The build feels solid and the zoom ring has just the right amount of resistance. It’s a workhorse that keeps everything sharp from edge to edge.

Christopher ★★★★★

The constant f/2.8 aperture means I never have to worry about changing settings when zooming indoors, and the image stabilization lets me shoot handheld in pretty dim light.

Steven K. ★★★★★

Shot a whole wedding with this lens and the constant f/2.8 kept exposures consistent through every lighting change. The autofocus is snappy enough for candid moments, and images are tack sharp even wide open.
