Pros: Image quality, compactness and lightness, build quality

Cons: Variable aperture

Opinion: Covering 70-200 in less than 150g and 5cm in length for me it makes Jacopot. There is no compromise with image quality and it looks well built (time will give the final judgment). Faithful to the m43 philosophy, my reference TV for free time, children's parties and sports and mountain outings. Having nothing more to say I add a few random words to meet the length criteria, hello dear and good photos!

Pros: Very sharp, compact, featherweight, stabilized, fast and accurate AF, unbeatable quality/price.

Cons: Not very bright (and I also wanted to see).

Opinion: I'm not a lover of zooms: the cheap ones have disappointing performance and the expensive ones... they are expensive, big and heavy. This zoom really surprised me: very sharp at all focal lengths from center to edge. Of course the brightness is what it is but, thanks to the stabilization, during the day you can take 90% of the photos. Combined with 12-32 you have a whole kit with just over 200gr. of weight and take home very sharp photos with the right contrast and with very neutral colors. If you want, there is no need for PP. IMHO

Pros: Compact and sharp

Cons: In relation to the price, nothing.

Opinion: What a lens! As usual, the M4/3 system offers unexpected surprises! At a very low cost you find yourself with a beautiful classic 70-200 canvas, with excellent image quality and crazy portability! Okay, it doesn't have constant diaphragms. Okay, the construction is not at the top, but we are talking about 300€! But in the end the images, which are the most important things, you take them home!

Pros: Very light, sharp enough

Cons: At 100mm you have to stand on F 5.6 max F8. F11 already loses a lot.

Opinion: Bought along with the GF7 and use it as a second body machine and I have to say that I was surprised by the sharpness. Obviously ninth is comparable to a ZEISS but if you don't look for that crispy sharpness of high level for what it costs it's worth. At 35mm up to F11 it performs very well, at 50mm to F5.6 from the best of itself and holds up well until F8, already at F11 loses a lot. At 100mm you shoot only at F5.6 to get the megio, after you lose on the street but it remains good until F11. At night I thought it was bad, but if you take F8 you will be surprised by the sharpness. Of course you have to use a tripod. For the rest for what it costs used is worth the price. I have a gallery with photos of it.

Pros: Size, price, performance, focal range

Cons: In relation to price and space no one

Opinion: Beautiful lens, really small and cheap but it churn out excellent photos and very sharp. The AF is fast and pretty accurate (tested on Olympus body). I like the idea of an equivalent 70-200, sometimes (rare) I would like to lengthen a little more but I understand that it would be very difficult in these very small dimensions without compromising the quality. For me it is a brilliant optics for those who want a tele to always carry around. I find that you mate well with the Raynox DCR-150 with which you can make good macros, even if my technique is just starting.

Pros: Sharpness, compactness, lightness, stabilization, autofocus speed, quietness...

Cons: For me no one in relation to the price and the category of the product.

Opinion: Received in kit with the GX80, it is really great. Indeed more in relation to the pros. The sharpness is almost fixed focal and, within the limits of its opening, according to the reviewers, rivals without fear in the common use with its larger, expensive and bulky brother F 2.8. Tiny size and weight, for uppercase results...
