I find this lens to be a great travel companion due to its compact size. After purchasing the Panasonic 100-300 (a lens I love for its great, but underestimated, great image quality) I found my 45-200 to be overkill so I gave up. But then I realized I was missing the 45-100 (90-200) range in my lens kit, so I decided to add this lens. Wise decision. I found I could slip this relatively inexpensive lens in my bag with minimal qualms, but when I take it out, like the 100-300, it produces great images. I find the images sharper than the 45-200 in this regard, but I haven't made direct comparisons as I no longer have the 45-200.
