Panasonic LUMIX G Vario 45-150mm f/4-5.6 ASPH MEGA O.I.S. Lens
Covering portrait-length to telephoto perspectives, the LUMIX G Vario 45-150mm f/4-5.6 ASPH. MEGA O.I.S. Lens from Panasonic is compatible with Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and provides a 90-300mm equivalent focal length range.
One UHR element helps to achieve even illumination and sharpness for consistent performance throughout the aperture and zoom ranges.
A pair of aspherical elements reduces spherical aberration and distortion for increased sharpness and clarity.
Multi-coated elements help to suppress lens flare and ghosting for greater contrast and color accuracy.
MEGA O.I.S. compensates for camera shake in order to realize sharper photos and videos when shooting handheld.
Stepping motor provides smooth, near-silent autofocus that is compatible with LUMIX cameras' high-speed contrast-detection systems.
Rounded seven-blade diaphragm produces a smooth out-of-focus quality when working with shallow depth of field techniques.

Luminesque 52mm Circular Polarizer and UV Slim PRO Filter Kit

Combining two of the most useful filters available, Luminesque's 52mm Circular Polarizer and UV Slim PRO Filter Kit is well-suited to all forms of photography. Both filters are constructed from Schott optical glass and feature a 12-layer multi-coating for maintained clarity and image quality. Each filter is also set in an anodized aluminum filter ring, with the UV filter featuring a slim 3.4mm-thick profile to lessen the likelihood of vignetting with wide-angle lenses.

The UV filter is a general use, clear filter that helps to absorb ultraviolet light and reduce the bluish cast of daylight. It is also useful as a general protective filter to leave on lenses at all times in order to reduce dust and moisture from reaching the front lens element and to provide additional protection in case of accidental impacts. Its 12-layer multi-coating also helps to achieve 98.2% light transmission for faithful color reproduction and contrast.

The circular polarizer filter helps to reduce reflections and glare by filtering out light that has become polarized due to reflection from a non-metallic surface. This results in a noticeable increase in the saturation of skies and foliage, as well as clearer imagery when photographing in hazy conditions. A circular polarizer differs from a linear polarizer in that it supports full use of a camera's autofocus and auto exposure functions.

Luminesque PRO
  • Constructed from Schott optical glass for maintained image quality and clarity.
  • A 12-layer multi-coating helps to reduce surface reflections and glare for improved contrast and color neutrality.
  • Anodized aluminum filter rings feature a knurled top edge for easier installation and removal.
UV Slim Filter
  • Absorbs UV light and reduces bluish cast of daylight for greater image clarity.
  • Clear filter provides no additional coloration or contrast, allowing you to pair this filter with others.
  • Works as general protection filter to reduce dust, moisture, and scratches from reaching the front lens element.
  • 12-layer multi-coating helps to realize a high light transmission rate of 98.2%.
  • Slim filter ring incorporates front threads and measures 3.4mm-thick to lessen the likelihood of vignetting when used on wide-angle lenses.
Circular Polarizer Filter
  • Reduce reflections and glare by filtering out light that has become polarized due to reflection from a non-metallic surface.
  • Arrange and filter directionally polarized light perpendicularly to the reflected light allowing for the absorption of much of the light.
  • Lessens haze in distant landscapes and provides more saturated, vivid colors.
  • Strongest effect when used at a 90° from the sun.

Great lens

The lens is great, as I expected. Shipping was quick. It was well packaged.

For 150 bucks, this thing is a steal

So I have a lumix s5 for my main rig, and also have a g85 as a backup cam for higher risk shoots or just when I need to have a smaller and more mobile setup. (Btw panasonic if you're reading this, PLEASE make a G85II with phase detect autofocus!) Wanting to do some wildlife shooting but I don't have a telephoto for my s5 yet. I'm eyeballing the 70-300mm macro but can't really afford another $1000 lens at the moment. I came across this one and realized that 45-150 is 90-300 full frame equivalent and if I'm shooting 4K video, I can obtain 600mm equivalent if I set the project to 1080p and crop down without losing any quality pixel for pixel (as far as I know). I saw it was on sale for $150 and I said why not, lets go for it. Worst case, I could always return it. At the price point my expectations were fairly low, and I was actually surprised with what I got. Image quality is solid on this lens, great contrast, sharpness is good at this price. Autofocus is good. Stabilization is fair, but I'm using both IBIS and OIS so a bit biased. If you're shooting video at 150mm, you'll want a tripod, gimbal or a solid place to rest the camera. I'm still trying to figure out why it's so cheap, given the results (although I haven't done any extensive scientific testing in controlled environments), there's likely plenty of info online to explain it. All in all, for 150 bucks on sale, there's really no reason not to have one in your kit, unless you already have something better. Solid little lens and I'd recommend it.
