Pros: Focal range, very versatile, quite light and compact, good optical quality on all focal range.

Cons: It starts from 28mm equivalents, zoom ring a little hard, not tropicalized, a bit unbalanced on smaller bodies.

Opinion: Taken to replace the 12-32 and avoid buying a telephoto zoom, since I hardly go to focal lengths higher than 70 mm equivalent. I've been using it for a few months on my GX9 and I can only speak well of it. In my opinion this lens fits perfectly into the philosophy of the micro four thirds, in less than 300 grams we have in our hands a lens ranging from 28mm to 280mm equivalent without ever losing excessively quality at all focal lengths. Good sharpness on the whole frame both wide side and telephoto side. Together with the Olympus 9-18 it is a perfect kit for any traveler who has no time or way to change their lens too often. Its quality is unparalleled in city trips and trekking, where it allows you to range from views to details. I was also positively surprised by the quality of the portraits, in fact, exceeded 100 mm, you can easily detach the subject from the background, despite not having a particularly open diaphragm on the canvas side. Clearly in closed or dimly lit environments we often find ourselves raising the ISO, but this is physiological for zooms of this type. If I really have to find faults, I would say that starting from the equivalent 28 mm makes it less useful as an all-rounder, the difference with the equivalent 24 mm is evident, especially in interiors and architectural photography. For me it is preferable to sacrifice something on the canvas side but have the equivalent 24 mm, but this is a completely personal preference. Another flaw is the zoom ring a little hard, especially in exceeding 50mm, sometimes it seemed to me to have reached the end of the stroke. For a travel lens I also find the lack of tropicalization strange, but despite having taken some downpours it has never been affected. Finally, in my opinion it is slightly unbalanced on smaller bodies, such as the GX9, perhaps in this case it is better to opt for the 12-60 Lumix, which among other things also starts from 24 mm equivalent. Ultimately, a good goal, but not the ideal all-rounder for me. Vote 8

Pros: (The review is for version 2 of the 14-140mm) Extreme versatility, excellent quality at all focal points, very compact and light, aesthetically beautiful, good optical stabilization.

Cons: Obviously because of its range the opening is not the maximum (f3.5 to 5.6), the lens is not resistant to water and dust.

Opinion: It is a perfect lens for those who want to cover all focal lengths without having to carry around so many goals. I recommend it to those who are starting and can only afford a lens (I took it together with the panasonic gx80 paying almost half). Of course it is not the best to photograph at night since the M4/3 already suffers from high ISOs, but it is still acceptable thanks to stabilization. By day practically perfect. Always crisp photos

Pros: Excellent in all its extension. Sturdy and very nicely done also aesthetically.

Cons: Slight loss of sharpness at the maximum focal length.

Opinion: A good target. Giving away the Panasonic GH1 camera to my son, with the new Olympus OMD 5 Mark Camera I preferred to take the Olympus 14/150 apparently I have not found any differences in usage, gaining a little in focal length from 280mm to 300mm. The choice, by way of reporting, was because, in my opinion, the Panasonic opted to improve cameras on the film industry, the Olympus has improved on photography. However 2 excellent and light lenses.

Pros: Nice

Cons: Nothing for now

Opinion: Who can help me? I bought this lens is I came up with the model without the inscription HD in red. What's the difference with the one over here???? Thank you please answer for yourself otherwise I make it immediately do not understand why the seller did not warn me. And I hope it works with the Panasonic GX80 to the full of possibilities

Pros: economical, lightweight, tiny, robust, very precise and very fast, sufficiently sharp, blurred very homogeneous and sweet, excellent stabilization

Cons: it is not tropicalized

Opinion: used for over two years in several parts of the world, mozambique, uganda, hong kong, russia, kuwait etc. in the end I lost it to mexico. but I'm waiting for a good price to repurchase it. I would think that is the superzoom ideal. light, crisp, fast af and excellent stabilization. You can criticize a certain loss of sharpness towards the maximum focal point. rnrnThird words an excellent and hard to replace travel companion! Highly recommended
