Pros: Lightweight, sharp, stabilized, works in tandem with the sensor stabilizer (Dual Is) fast and silent AF, tropicalized, solid construction, metal body mount. With M4/3 24/120

Cons: Call it an optical kit, and if you really want, the price in buying it separately, but you can find it used for about € 200 and even less.

Opinion: A well-made all-rounder optic, often underestimated because it is sold in kits, but in my opinion it is worth all the money spent, I had two as I had bought two Lumix bodies, one of the two put on sale in a flea market and sold within a couple of hours. Very sharp, and having the double stabilization it compensates with the shutter speed without raising the ISO, in videos it is very silent in the AF. What can I say, I'm holding on to the second specimen. ?

Pros: weight, size, price, (double) stabilization, perfect focal range

Cons: Given the price, none.

Opinion: Let's start from the bottom: it's not a bright optic, period. For the rest, only merits: it is small and very light, plasticky but well built and tropicalized, it covers a fabulous focal range (24-120mm eq.), it focuses very close and has stabilization, which on compatible Panasonic bodies (such as Gx80 and G80) becomes double. Generally good resolution (better wide side, better in the middle).

Pros: weight, sharpness, tropicalized

Cons: Extreme angle vignetting

Opinion: versatile optics. Brightness is a feature for which it is not a defect. Quite sharp at all focal lengths, well built, slightly tropicalized. Excellent minimum focusing distance both in wide angle and in tele. Also good for close up. as defects I found an annoying vignetting in certain conditions (clear sky or uniform colors) in the extreme corners

Pros: weight, size, sharpness, price.

Cons: Considering the price practically no one apart, perhaps, the opening of the diaphragm but I do not care.

Opinion: After a thousand thousand years of SLR I decided to try an ML, especially for weight and bulk, and the choice fell on a Pana G80 with its Panasonic Lumix G Vario 12-60mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS kit lens. Accustomed to the modest quality of the kit lenses of other brands I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of this lens that was practically almost given to me with the car. Very sharp, especially from f.8.0 upwards, very light, very compact. It has nothing to envy to more noble goals. Really good.

Pros: Size, quality and price

Cons: I can't find any

Opinion: This lens is the main reason for my switch to the m43. Sharpness to sell, light and discreet at the right point well matches my Olympus body, shooting in RAW I do not encounter any problem, vignetting distortion and various aberrations are automatically corrected by dxo. Thanks to the equivalent 24_120 mm it is possible to use it as the only lens that I did on the occasion of a holiday in the Dolomites not feeling the need to have anything else.
