Advantages

This Panasonic telephoto lens offers a broad focal range suitable for portraits, events and travel, while remaining small and light for everyday use. The POWER O.I.S. system reduces camera shake for sharper handheld images and the aspherical elements contribute to improved sharpness and reduced aberrations across the zoom range. A close focusing distance of 0.2 m increases versatility for tighter framing of subjects.

How to use

Attach the lens to a compatible Micro Four Thirds camera body until it clicks into place. Use the zoom ring to set the desired focal length between 12 and 60 mm and adjust focus manually or use the camera’s autofocus. Engage the camera’s stabilization if available; the lens’ POWER O.I.S. further reduces blur from hand shake. Select an appropriate aperture (F3.5–F5.6 range) for depth of field control and adjust shutter speed and ISO according to lighting conditions.

Recommendations

For best results when shooting handheld, enable both the lens POWER O.I.S. and any in-body stabilization the camera offers. Use wider focal lengths for environmental portraits and travel scenes, and longer focal lengths for tighter framing or distant subjects. Protect the front element with a 58 mm UV or protective filter when working outdoors.
