Spanning a useful range of wide-angle focal lengths, the Lumix G Vario 7-14mm f/4 ASPH. from Panasonic is a versatile wide zoom for Micro Four Thirds cameras, and offers a 14-28mm equivalent focal length. Well-suited for landscape, nature, and architectural applications, the wide field of view is complemented by a constant f/4 maximum aperture for consistent illumination throughout the zoom range. The optical design makes use of low dispersion and aspherical glass elements to control a variety of aberrations and color fringing for notable sharpness, clarity, and color accuracy, and individual elements are also multi-coated to control flare and ghosting for improved contrast. Additionally, the lens features a built-in petal-shaped lens hood to guard the front element from stray light to further reduce flaring and surface reflections.
- Micro Four Thirds System
- 14-28mm (35mm Equivalent)

Panasonic Lumix G Vario 7-14mm f/4 Reviews
Love Ultra-Wide
Love ultra-wide but could not justify the cost of purchasing the Olympus 7-14mm pro. This Panasonic M43 lens is great! Acceptable level of distortion for an ultra-ultra-wide, great color and sharpness.
Outstanding Lens
After I bought my Panasonic GX9 camera I wanted a wide angle lens to give me the needed coverage for my city and scenic photography. It totally fits the bill, and it is always left on my camera. With my 40 years as a pro photographer... it still makes me “plan my shots” for the highest impact of those images. I highly recommend it..!!
Lumix G Vario 7-14mm f/4 ASPH. Lens
It's a great lens. Very wide on the GH5s, and shoots nice usable shots even in very little light.
Excellent lens
I’m very happy with this lens! Glad I got it! However it is very pricey!
My Dream Lens
I've been eyeing this lens for a couple years now. I finally caved and bought it. Boy, is this lens dream boat city. It's the widest lens known to the Lumix series (without a speedbooster). The warped edge looks pretty cool if that's what you're going for. The automatic focus is fantastic for my YouTube videos. The focus in general is super sharp for all of my documentary footage. This is my favorite lens so far. <3
I always go back to this lens
Even though the Olympus 12-40 is on my camera about 80% of the time, just about all my photos that I think are WOW end up being from this lens.� For somebody who shoots a lot of landscapes, this lens is a must.
Great lens. Impossibly Tiny.
Great lens, and it's impossibly small for such a feature-rich lens. Everything works as expected. Nice sharp images, but quite a lot of CA outdoors.
Ideal For Sit Down Interviews
I've been using this lens with both a GH4 and GH5 for the past two years and I find it's ideal for interview settings. I typically shoot in 3840 x 2160 and this lens allows me to get the camera fairly close for a two-shot, shoot wider that what I need, crop up to 300% in FCPX and still export in 1920 x 1080 while maintaining a pristine image. It's my go-to lens for interviews and it hasn't failed me yet.
