Review on 45 200Mm 4 0 5 6 Lumix Vario I S by Virot Phumsiri ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I am happy with everything, the product matches the description.

Used this lens on Oympus OMD-10 Mark III and Panasonic GX-800. I have little experience with telephoto cameras, I did not use a tripod. As far as I understand, the main trouble when shooting at a long focus is blurryness due to micro-lubrication from trembling hands. In Olympus, the lens stabilizer does not work, but there is matrix stabilization. Panasonic camera without a matrix, but it interacts with an O. I. S. lens stabilizer. So, despite the vaunted Olympus matrix stabilization, the Panasonic result is at least no worse. It seems that in more advanced Panas with a matrix stub, double stabilization should remove all problems with lubrication. But the lens did not lie on the heart. Usually any purchase of new technology makes me happy, but this lens took too long to get used to. In terms of price-quality ratio, the final result satisfies. Shoot objects at fast shutter speeds against a contrasting, dim background, and you will be fine. All photographs shown were taken at a long focus, edited.

Pros
  • Good stabilization, relatively compact and lightweight
Cons
  • Poorly holds backlight - colors degrade, diffraction, chromatic aberrations. You will not get a pie in the sky with good quality.
