MPN's:
The power dual OIS is great with the GH5.
This takes an amazing footage/images and love it. If you are in the market for a great portrait lens, I highly suggest it. Not as great with video, but still worth it for portraits.

The Lens I've Searched For...
After trying three different 4/3 PORTRAIT lenses I choose the Lumix because it looks the best, feels the best and on my PEN F functions the best! I would certainly buy again.

Great all around lens
My new favorite lens. I got this to replace my Olympus 45mm 1.8 and I have no regrets. I love the image stabilization and the minimum focus distance. Great all around lens.

Lumix G 42.5
Great bright lens. I use it for shots of my kids. Love the F1.7 to separate them from the background. Physically compact. A little pricey, but definitely a quality lens.

Worth the money
Excellent lens for portraits and close ups. Used it to shoot a bridal shower; worked perfectly. Some chromatic aberration in backlit situations. Beautiful hokeh.

Sharp lens - beautiful bokeh
Nice solid feel, compact design, great bokeh wide open. Wonderful saturated tone but I find this lens with the GH3 tends to hunt for focus close up.

Highly recommended.
This lens is an absolute steal. Moderately priced, sharp across the frame, and it includes Power IS, as well. No negatives with this lens.

Great lens for every day use
Love this lens for its good auto focus, shallow depth of field and sharp images. I should have purchased this lens from the beginning.

Great Lens
Very light, contrasty(sharp) and fast focusing. Equal to the Oly 45, but I chose this lens for the OIS and minimum focusing distance.

Not really impressed
From all the reviews I've read I thought this would have been a lot sharper than it is. Am thinking of returning it. Neil

Good
Very sharp and affordable. I recommend. Construction is not that sturdy, but you get what you pay for. I can not complain.

Amazing Lens
I started using this lens year ago with my Olympus E-M10 and E-M5 Mark II. I never change the lens since the first day!

Best Value
Amazing lens for the price. Color isn't quite up there with the 12-35 or Leica-designed glass, but it's very close.

Great short tele
3 stops faster than the basic 14-42mm kit lens, and a whole lot sharper, even wide open at f/1.7. Love this lens!
