Good product for a mid-range lens
Overall a good update for shooting telephoto and zoom lens. It feels a bit more expensive than kit lens but still on the cheaper side. The overall package is worth the buy as I got extra items with it.

Nice Lens
Getting back into photography. A nice long lens for a great price. Having fun playing with it.

Great additional lens to have in your bag
Im very happy with the performance of this lens. I mainly use if for video, but the stills are decent. Its perfect mid length and lets you get nice close up shots from a distance. The O.I.S. works better than I anticipated with my GH5s for hand held. If youre looking for one lens to do everything, this is not the one, but it is definitely a nice option to have on hand. The price was right too!

Great Lens!
Im an amateur photographer who enjoys taking outdoor nature shots and closeups of wildlife in my yard and places that I walk, especially birds. Due to my little experience I cant compare this lens to others for you BUT I can tell you the lens is easy and exciting to use, bringing animals and birds up close and personal. B&H Photo has a great website, their communications and delivery were prompt, friendly and efficient. Im a very happy customer.

The lens is not bad
Convenient focal length. Small, lightweight; easy to travel with. Images appear soft toward the 150mm end. Plastic build. But overall, good quality, especially for the price. Great order fulfillment by B&H.

Panasonic Lumix G Vario 45-150mm f/4-5.6
It has been designed for both still-picture and video photography, which means it is effectively silent in use. I like it.

Tremendous Value
Amazing quality optics for the price paid. Everyone should have one of these in the camera bag for the few times you may need a long telephoto!

A Great Deal
This is the perfect lens for my first used mirrorless Panasonic. I like to carry this lightweight camera and lens in my purse for those "I wish I had my camera moments".

Nice smaller telephoto
This came with my GX85 which I am thankful for, because the kit lens that came with it wasn't that great between not having manual focus and a narrower aperture which means no blurring of the background- which isn't the case with this lens though the f stop value isn't great a 4- there is still a lot of compression happening with the backgrounds which makes the subject stand out. I'm used to shooting plants with wide angles and fisheyes so this h... Show More

Nothing low end about this
I got this when it went on sale...I am using a panasonic g7...I have the Olympus 40-150 but it focuses too slow on the panasonic...This lens focuses very quickly...my images are very sharp...I have used it to shoot cityscapes and wildlife and portraits...it is multitalented and will render spectacular images providing you have good light....Providing you get a good copy I guarantee you will like this

Bang for the buck
Great telephoto for travel: small, light and good range. Comparing it to the original Lumix 45-200mm, it's shorter, lighter, a little sharper and has better color rendition. The zoom ring on the 45-150 is a little stiff, but it doesn't have zoom-creep, which the 45-200 does have, and it's really annoying. I haven't done a lot of pixel peeping, but cropping a photo taken with this lens at 150mm yields the same or better results as an uncropped pi... Show More

Sharp lens, great price
This is a great lens for $150 as a general purpose outdoor or portrait lens. It is easy to carry around, light and not too bulky, which makes it good for street photography.

Nothing spectacular
I have several Panasonic lenses and this is my least favorite. I wanted a little more reach than my 12-60 mm f 3.5-5.6. This lens is not as sharp as any of my other lenses.

A good standard telephoto lens for a good price
I received this lens for free when I purchased my GX85. I was originally looking at getting the Panasonic 35-100mm f/2.8 as I like that focal length for a standard telephoto. So far I have not found any reasons to upgrade to that lens yet. There have been a few times I would have preferred the extra stops of light with 35-100mm but this lens has been more than adequate so far. I would highly recommend it for any new photographers who are looking ... Show More

very practicle Bag
The size of the bag is really good to bag your Mac Pro 13 in addition to all its cables and I pad Pro 9.7. I was surprised how easy was it to finally carry one bag having the items I need. It is small and practical and has many compartments to add all those little stuff in addition to pens. It is well built to last and make carrying it easy and the strap is wide enough to guarantee painless carrying of what ever weight in the bag. I really loved the bag and I foresee being another for work.

Bad experience on open box item
Bought a used open box lens to save money but it came with front chipped. They offered refund but I needed lens & kept it since I was short on time & funds. Besides false statements that this was an open box item after looking at pictures they all have a blotch on them that ruined pictures that were a once in a lifetime experience. So buyer beware some things are not as presented.

A great value!
I just needed a longer zoom and thought for the money it was not much of a gamble. So far I have found it sharp and easily worth more then I paid! Sure its not the fastest but with appropriate light its a great little lens!

Might return it
Using on a Panasonic GF-1 micro 4/3, so this lens is native to the camea. Lens has nice focal range and light capture, takes good images, but does not play well with autofocus. Will focus ok the first time, but refocusing on a new target is a fail. Having to turn camera off/on to get new focus when in autofocus mode. Haven't read all instructions yet, so there may be other tricks available. But I thought autofocus would, you know, automatically focus.

Great lens!
I've been using this lens to take photos and video at my church. Great sensitivity but not too sensitive. If you need a great lens for a Panasonic, this is a great option.

Good lens but some focus issues with mine
This lens is affordably priced and takes good sharp photos, but I am having trouble with focus in the higher mm range. When using in the 75 to 150mm range, the lens wants to focus on the distant object in the background and I have great difficulty in getting the lens to auto focus on the object of interest. I have resorted to manual focus in the higher telephoto range.

Good go to
I found the Lumix 45-150 a good value lens that can add great flexibility to a m4/3 setup. Focusing, low light and sharpness are acceptable as is the build quality. You get what you pay for and hope for with this lens.

Just a bargain and a very good lens.
I bought this to compliment my 12-60 on trips, and it's better than I had expected. Not a fast lens, but nice handling, sharp, and, of course, small and light. If you need a lens in this range it's a no-brainer.

Nice inexspensive zoom lens
I haven't had too many chances to use this yet, but the few pictures I took looked quite good, the zoom action is quite smooth as is the focus ring.

Good value for money
This lens was packaged with the Lumix G85 and makes a great companion to that camera. It provides a useful zoom range, quite good low light performance and is small and light to carry.
