Product ReviewsPanasonic H-PS45175-K 175mm F/5.6D Lens

Great lens for still or video

I'm really glad I chose this lens vs the 45-150mm lens. This lens is compact, takes the same size filter (46mm) as the 14-42mm kit zoom, and doesn't weigh a ton, which makes holding it steady at full zoom much easier. I also like the fact that all the lens movement is internal, so the external length never changes with the zoom. The power zoom is great for shooting video.Read full review...

Great lens for the money.

The Power Zoom on this lens is what makes it so useful. And 2 ways to zoom with lens ring or toggle switch on the lens. Focus is also very quick and sharp.

Power Zoom Review

I had read about this lens offering power zooming for my JVC LS300 Camcorder so thought I'd give it a try. It mounted up and works fine. Just wish they would also offer this in a 2.8.

Great autofocus with sharp pictures.

Having read several despairing reviews about issues with image quality I wasn't sure to purchase this lens but I am so glad that I pulled the trigger and went ahead with it. Fantastic autofocus and sharp pictures. The lens itself is so light and looks beautiful. It has been a pleasure taking with me on photography adventures. Fits well on my GM1... the lens and body together work fantastically. The OIS is very noticeable as the real-time images and video shown on my LCD are rendered smoothly and without any noticeable shakiness as I'm holding up camera and lens to snap photos.

Nice lens

As expected based on reviews... Strong zoom in compact size, well stabilized for handheld wild shots.

Works fine with my OMD

Use with OMD. Very happy with lens, good zoom. Just like my Panasonic 14 mm and 20mm primes, this lens is very sharp and fast to focus. Unlike the Panasonic 25mm f/1.4 lens this lens does not have any focus, noise or chatter issues. (Had to return the 25 as it was a no go, ate up the batteries in about 1 hour.)

Only wish is that it was a constant f/4.0.Read full review...

Great MFT lens for remote zoom control

Excellent lens for Panasonic micro four thirds (MFT) cameras, especially when you need to change the zoom remotely. The power zoom PZ is the only way to do it.
