Pros: Small size, very light for the focal length, stabilization, excellent overall yield, price.

Cons: Frankly, I can't think of anything

Opinion: I took this lens especially for birdlife, considering that at 300mm it is a 600 equivalent, and I am completely satisfied. It costs relatively little and has a very high yield even at 300. Of course it makes the best if a little closed, f.8 or f.11, but also at full opening it says its without particular problems. At the beginning I was not very convinced but after stressing it and learning to use it I am very satisfied, it is worth all the money it costs and even more. Advised.

Pros: It has no competitors, so it's advantageous in every respect

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: Do you like to win easy? You could ask for this goal, which has no competitor. There is a Zuiko equivalent, but if you own a Lumix there is no reason to turn to him. It is handy and offers good results regardless of the price. It's almost unbelievable to carry a 100-300 telezoom with ease. It is also out of place to cause the low brightness to defect, practically 5.6. With digital that allows you to shoot at 800 iso quietly is not a problem, if you also consider double stabilization. Increasing the brightness would have made it grow exponentially and also the price would have relegated it to the purchases of "but do I really need ?". Probably the blurred will not be that of the ultraluminous, those who allow to have in focus an eye yes and one not, that characterize the artistic of the modern photographer (H.C. Besson and Berengo Gardin did not sleep there at night) and on the bohek or as cabbage you write I do not know what to say, since I more or less care how the study of the migration of beetles in southern China... But I also understand that de gustibus...

Pros: Compactness, weight, chromatic rendering, good overall sharpness, dual is, price in relation to the focal excursion.

Cons: Lack of maf limiter, slightly light lampshade, some purple fringing at 300mm (in the raw) where it also has a drop in physiological sharpness.

Opinion: A view certainly of value in relation to the relationship between performance, however good and cost, size and weight all rather low. As far as I'm concerned, portability is the greatest value. I also really like the color rendering. In my opinion, it remains a lens that, taking into account the focal points of which it is capable and the weight it contains requires a conscious use, not very carefree. However the stabilization combined with the G9 if used with criterion is excellent, The construction is plastic but discreet. The lampshade in my opinion is built in a slightly too cheap way, probably the worst of those of the various optics that I have possessed, as a little too light and mounting it on the fly does not always the hooking takes place with confidence at the first shot. The Af seems decent to me if he is not asked about miracles. Overall, it is advisable if you are well aware of your needs. I did not try the older brother 100-400 but from what you see around it should be optically better but at a cost almost triple and at twice the weight (which in the long run could require a monopod), as well as vexed by some inconsistency such as the hardness of the zoom ring and the construction of the lampshade that for me remains a mystery.

Pros: Double stabilization with the bodies of the same brand, size and weight, tropicalization.

Cons: Lack of a standard collar.

Opinion: Taken in order to have a light and compact bike set-up, despite having better optics but much larger and heavier (in a relative sense for a m43 system, but always small and light in comparison to larger sizes); the optics go to marry perfectly with machines like the G9 but it was intended for use with the GX9 for the reasons above. Despite the dual IS requires a minimum of practice to be best used at the most pushed focal points, as the danger of movement is always around the corner. With times below the limits achievable with the double stabilizer, it would have been useful to provide a ring with attachment (possibly ark) for the tripod while instead you have to resort to the after market (I find only a product made by a German craftsman, however very expensive). I do not see it as a major flaw since the optics is born mainly for freehand use with a lot of light (which is then what I need, exits in MTB in broad daylight). For its scope of use therefore excellent, a full 9 I would say.

Pros: Price, compactness and weight, tropicalization, sharpness, excellent stabilization with the dual is. Built with quality plastic and fluid ring on the entire excursion.

Cons: I own it recently, for now no one. A focus limiter would be useful.

Opinion: It is an excellent lens that can easily be carried in the high mountains without the need for a sherpa. Very clear up to 260mm, there is a drop in sharpness to 300mm, is comparable to that of the various lenses 150-600mm for full frame to f8, but remaining at f5.6. The autofocus is quite reactive even on a gx80, in the less contrasted conditions it is hard to hook but I fear depends on the camera, probably on a flagship will be great. Stabilization is excellent, but when you do photo shooting it is good to maintain high security times to avoid camera shake. At 600 mmeq I never get under 1/200, even if on the forum there are sharp shots with much slower times. I totally feel satisfied with the purchase.
