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.

Panasonic Lumix G Vario 7-14mm f/4 Reviews
Beautiful color, contrast, and sharpness
I’ve been using this superb lens, first on the GH4, then on the GH5, and now on the G9II with superb results in a highly useful range equivalent to 14-28mm full frame… I’ve also customized a 3x3”, 100mm filter holder, so that I can use ND and ND graduated filters on the front of the lens. The results have been perfection on this A+++ lens
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.
