Panasonic Lumix G Vario 100-300mm f/4.0-5.6 Zoom Lens
Panasonic Lumix G Vario 100-300mm f/4.0-5.6 Verdict
Although £460 may seem a little expensive for a 100-300mm lens, if you think of it in comparison to a 600mm lens for a 35mm camera, it suddenly seems like better value, and should be a popular choice for wildlife shooters who own a Micro-Four Thirds camera.The performance of the lens is good too. Although it isn't the highest performing lens Panasonic make, it is certainly adequate, producing sharp contrasty images.
The Panasonic 100-300mm lens offers good value and would make a good choice for wildlife shooters. |
