This lens with a focal length of 24-120mm (KB) is suitable for both portrait and landscape photography. The Power O.I.S. image stabilizer ensures blur-free handheld shots or in low light conditions.
The LUMIX G VARIO 12-60mm consists of 11 lenses in 9 groups. Three aspherical elements and one ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lens allow for a compact design without compromising quality, while minimizing distortion and chromatic aberration.
With its focal length of 24-120mm (KB), the lens is equally suitable for portraits and landscape photography.
Typical of LUMIX, the Power O.I.S. image stabilizer ensures blur-free handheld or low-light shooting. It is also compatible with the GX8's body stabilizer. The dual stabilization (Dual IS) enables even more effective compensation of camera shake.
A fast signal transfer rate of up to 240B/s ensures the fastest response times, especially in combination with the Hybrid Contrast AF of the current LUMIX G cameras. Focusing is achieved via a precise and quiet internal focusing system, driven by a stepper motor.
The LUMIX G VARIO 12-60mm/3.5-5.6 is equipped with a solid metal bayonet. Multi-coating of the lens elements ensures high-contrast image reproduction and minimizes reflections or ghosting.
Dust and splash protection make it the optimal companion for the LUMIX GH4 or GX8 even in inhospitable conditions.

I have been using this lens for years as an "always-on" lens on my Olympus cameras and have always been very satisfied with the price-performance ratio. Unfortunately, after a small fall, the focus motor of its predecessor only focused in the 12 to 20 mm range. An attempt to repair it seemed disproportionate to me. An equivalent replacement was therefore necessary.
Review automatically translated! Show originalDiese Objektiv benutze ich seit Jahren als "Immerdrauf" an meinen Olympus-Kameras und war immer sehr zufrieden mit dem Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Leider stellte beim Vorgänger der Fokus nach einem kleinen Sturz der Fokus-Motor nur noch im bereich von 12 bis 20 mm. Ein Reparaturversuch schien mir unverhältnismäßig. Daher war ein gleichweriger Ersatz notwendig.
