thank you vitality,...superb post about the x lense,....... hai is it really a good worth if i order a 14-42x and 45-175 x ???? i am looking for zoom lenses,....a short and a long one,..do power ios really does better than mega ios? what about moving objects??? indoor performance???

I want it.

fine lens, good quality build best working with my Isco Nano coated (rebuild) for anamorphic shooting GH3 Anamorphic Test Double focusring handling aperture F10 standard settings, manuel Auto iso

The auto lens cap direct buy from the maker.

I noticed that the 14-42 x black is discontinued . Wondering if a new replacement is coming ?

love the 45-175mm - brilliant quality and in the 40% frame rate modus very steady handheld even @ 175mm Mega OIS is fine here - where power OIS is dramatically dissapointing on the new 12-35mm This 45-175mm is my favorite panny lens

45-175mm + Manfrotto mvr901ecpl panasonic lanc zoom on GH4 4k re-sized to 2k for youtube. Unlike the GH3 the GH4 lets you use some panasonic lanc devices, I've only tested with the zoom controller which works nicely with the 45-175 power zoom can't verify focus or aperture controls work. My 45-175 appears to be parfocal as well.

Shot this yesterday, first time using the zoom controller IOS off so haven't quite got the bite points sorted yet so a couple of bit's not as smooth as I would like but it's really nice to use and just me getting used to it not the tech. Now if only we could have a power zoom f2.8 constant aperture in this zoom range for indoor I would be very happy :-)

I do hope they follow through with that! The 45-175 is my most used lens and I'd love full IS2 on my G85 with it.
