Panasonic LUMIX G 42.5mm f/1.7 ASPH. Review

Gary Wolstenholme reviews the new Panasonic Lumix G 42.5mm f/1.7 ASPH lens with optical image stabilisation for Micro Four Thirds cameras.

This lens is a no-brainer if you're looking for bargain short telephoto prime with decent close focus abilities. Optically, it's excellent and my sample tests the same as SLR gear's review so it seems build quality might be reliable too, although the...

SLR Gear review is dead on. It's a great lens

No aperture ring, OIS mechanism rattles when powered off
