Pros:Fixed aperture at f/4, focal excursion from 24 to 200 FF equivalent, high sharpness at all focal points, construction quality, at 12 mm focuses the subjects less than one centimeter from the lens. I'm going to stop here.
Cons:Nobody
Opinion:Purchased for my E-M1 MKII to use on the go, I was immediately surprised by the incredible picture quality, especially in relation to the great focal excursion. I don't know how many targetses of other brands and with a fixed aperture to f/4 can compare with this beautiful glass and metal object. Of course, to be a lens intended for a mirrorless is not really a feather, but for those like me who are used to carrying backpacks with FF cameras, 24-70 f/2.8 + canvases 70-200 f/2.8, just to stay in the focal range, the overall weight of M1 and 12-200 is practically nleas. As I wrote in the PRO, the quality of the images is really very high, chromatic aberrations practically absent, distortions in the norm correctable without problems in PP, fixed opening at f/4, stabilization from primacy (in combination with the 5-axis stabilizer of the M1 MKII allows you to take photos at night without easel). The only objective for every situation. My best purchase.
Opinion:Taken for about 2 months, I am excited about this lens ! You can do anything, sharp on the whole image, super image stabilizer, very beautiful colors, LIGHTNING AF, excellent construction and tropicalization, weight does not cause me problems even on long excursions since I do not put any other lens in the bag. I highly recommend to everyone.
Opinion:There are many 10X zooms, but for the first time we don't have to compromise on optical quality. This 12-100 is so versatile and reliable that it allows you to focus only on photography, you no longer have to think about which lens to use, if you need to branch out, if maybe the focal one is weak etc, you just have to take the car and shoot, because it has no real weaknesses, even at TA the IQ remains very high for all the focal points. The dimensions are challenging, of what we are used to seeing on APSC or FF, but it must be considered that no other lenses are needed since focals of 24 to 200mm are covered, and even the 560gr weight at the end is about the same weight as the two optics I used previously. Excellent stabilizer that I use on an un stabilized Panasonic GH1 body. Unfortunately for us, Olympus makes us pay for this great piece of glass: 1000€ round in the physical store, but it can replace 2-3 excellent optics that together would cost equal or more. Used every now and then you find it, but always at a high price.
Pros:Sharpness, stabilization, solidity and build quality,
Cons:Size and weight but only because the 4/3 micro size has got us used to it well
Opinion:Fantastic goal! It's like having the sharpness of all the fixed prime targets of Olympus and Panasonic (and Sigma) between 12 and 100 mm in one body. The lens stabilizer paired with the em1 mark 2 body stabilizer has miraculous, at 100 mm it is quietly snapped by free hand at 1/10 of a second... The AF is lightning and precise. It is massive and gives sensation of great quality, it is weight compared to the average of the lenses for micro 4/3 and the clutter, relative, is remarkable. Excellent minimum distance of maf, the addition of an af extension tube makes it suitable even for interesting macro shots.
Pros:Edge sharpness on board, F4, tropicalization, focus, stabilized, pro materials, for the size that has weight contained.
Cons:Nobody
Opinion:I owned 12/40 pro, I sold it to take risks with this new all-rounder lens diu high quality, well I made the right choice, in my opinion the sharpness unlike the 12-40 you notice from board to board. Af lightning and maximum precision if you work in manual with peak visura. The stabilization combined with that of the machine (possible with M1 II) crazy I photographed at 1" (static elements) without noticing the move. Great color rendering, even blurry pleasant despite having only 7 diaphragm blades. Key functions (as among other pros) tropicalized excellent lampshade, only 560 gr for a 12/100 lens, EVERYTHING I use it in the mountains, street, and portrayed, I risked macrophotography and I was satisfied (without clearly taking anything away from a dedicated macro lens). Recommended for those who do not want to change constantly so many lenses.
