Pros: Sharpness, 3D pop, Leica colours, incredible build quality

Cons: cases of ghosting in backlight , f2.8 up to 20 mm would have been nice

Opinion: The moment you hold the Panaleica 12-60 in your hands, you know that you are in presence of a fantastic piece of engineering , solid, smooth metal . Sizewise the lens is perfect for an Em1, and even pretty good on my old Em5 . Fine AF, nice colours, nice 3dD pop , lens stabilization ( to be preferred over the ibis with Olympus bodies ) . Already incredibly sharp at 12 mm, even better than my 12 mm f2 Olympus prime. Excellent until 50 mm . A bit weaker sharpness- and contrast-wise at 60 mm f4 , but that's very good for portraits with a nice background blur; for lanscapes and street better use f5.6 and add a touch of contrats in post .

Pros: Construction and optical rendering

Cons: Don't have it

Opinion: It is a lens that is difficult to take off the camera. In some reviews here they complain about optical defects that I have not found. Someone complains that it suddenly drops in brightness with increasing focal length and criticizes at the same time the weight and size: evidently can not imagine how it could be and how much a constant 12-60 f2.8 should cost. Personally I would have preferred a constant f/4. Someone mentioned among the defects the made in China ... Is it a defect? Why should it be, since it has excellent mechanics? Except for specific needs, it could be the only objective of the kit.

Pros: Excellent construction, compactness, fluidity of the rings, additional keys to improve lens control, fast AF, good macro capabilities, optical defects almost always very well corrected

Cons: Distortion quite evident in raw at 12mm, a bit of vignetting more evident in raw at 12mm, maximum brightness that decreases quickly (the maximum aperture is f/3.5 at 25mm, and f/3.9 at 40mm)

Opinion: I've owned it for two years, for me it's a great travel lens. The metal construction is great, with fluid rings and additional keys such as the AF/MF switch and stabilizer button. The AF is fast, and the macro capabilities are good despite not being a dedicated lens. The compactness of the lens is great for travel, but it is compensated by the fact that the maximum brightness decreases quickly (the maximum aperture is f/3.5 at 25mm, and f/3.9 at 40mm). The optical defects almost always very well corrected, apart from the fairly obvious distortion in raw at 12mm and a bit of vignetting more evident in RAW at 12mm. Recommended lens for M4/3 users.

Pros: Absolutely excellent performance, beautiful colors on both Olympus and Lumix bodies, silent AF, razor-sharp, professional construction!

Cons: It risks not letting me use other Lenses anymore

Opinion: There are few things to say, I have never had an all-rounder zoom that has a fixed yield everywhere! He never missed a beat, absurd colors and superb sharpness. I have a D610 with the tamron 28-75 and it is not as brood as the Leica, ditto my old Fujifilm X-T30 with the 18-55 f2.8 and the 16-55 are not so sharp unless I close the diaphragm! All-metal construction and excellent material quality. In short, my favorite lens currently! It was not understood, right? :)

Pros: Sharpness, build quality, color tones. Balanced focal excursion from wide angle to medium canvas, which allows quality to all focal points, from 12 to 60.

Cons: On compact rooms in the gx series, the weight is felt (I suppose even on the small Olympus M10 and M5 home). If it had been a little smaller and lighter it would have been perfect. It's f2.8 only at 12mm.

Opinion: Taken to replace the 12-32 kit, the first thing you notice right away is the build quality. Shooting you appreciate everything else. The sharpness and "crunchiness" of the photos stand out immediately. The fact that zommando moves quickly from f2.8 to f3.5 is actually a weak spot that immediately puts the buyer's question about whether to buy this or the Zuiko 12-40 f2.8. The extra stop in itself is not a big problem and does not lose the quality, also because the blurry is pleasant even at 60mm, but...
