About this lens

The Panasonic Lumix G X Vario 35-100mm f/2.8 II POWER O.I.S. is Panasonic's pro-grade constant-aperture telephoto zoom for Micro Four Thirds - 70-200mm full-frame equivalent at constant f/2.8. Effectively the MFT equivalent of a full-frame 70-200 f/2.8, but sized for the smaller MFT system. With Panasonic's POWER O.I.S. stabilisation.

Build & handling

Works with

• Panasonic Lumix Micro Four Thirds bodies (G9 II, GH6, G9, GH5, GH5 II, G95, etc.)
• Olympus / OM System Micro Four Thirds bodies - works but no Dual IS (uses O.I.S. only)
• Any Micro Four Thirds body - universal mount

Best for

The pro MFT telephoto - 70-200 equivalent at constant f/2.8, weather-sealed, with OIS. At 357g it's dramatically lighter than a full-frame 70-200 f/2.8 (typically 1.3-1.5kg). Pairs well with X Vario 12-35mm f/2.8 II for a compact pro 24-200mm-equivalent two-lens kit on Panasonic GH or G9 II bodies.
