Panasonic LUMIX G Lens, 25mm, F1.7 ASPH, Mirrorless Micro Four Thirds, H-H025K (USA Black)

perfect lens

Highly recommended if you have a suitable camera body to use it on.

Great low light performance, full body portrait

Overview While this isn't my favorite lens (that would be the Olympus 45mm/1.8), this is currently a very close second. This is an excellent lens, especially for low light. The only reason why this isn't my favorite lens is that for my particular uses, the 45mm is a more useful focal length. For most people, however, the 25mm is probably a way better focal length. I don't believe you can get a faster lens than this one at such a low price. The Good Parts * Inexpensive at just over $200 * Good all around focal length for most people * Sharp and good color * Metal mount * Fast F1.7 aperture means you can use a lower ISO in low light * Good AF speeds (your mileage will vary, depending on the camera you are using) * Comes with lens hood * Lightweight * Good bokeh * Well made Could Be Better * A little chunky (volume-wise, it's bigger than my 45mm)

O produto é excelente, funciona extremamente bem! Ótima qualidade.

Perfect 10/10 👍🏾

Best for quality no damage

Good fast, sharp, auto focus 50 mm lens. The auto focus can seem to hunt around a bit, depending, but it hasn't failed to lock in and take great photos, especially in low light. A good f1.7 lens for $150 is a bargain, considering, and you get dual auto focus with this lens and a Panasonic G85 or similar camera with in-body stabilization. Be warned, on a G85, anyway, I will get an error message "Len's not properly attached". The problem seems to be that all the electrical pins in the lens may not contact the body contacts unless you jiggle the lens ever so slightly after mounting it. It took me a little while to figure this out. Not sure if it's a defect in the camera, lens, or design- but I can get this error putting the kit 12-60 mm zoom as well. I.e., the lens fits secure and tight, but apparently it needs this little jiggle once on to make sure all the contacts seat. I've seen comparisons with the Leica 50 mm f1.4 lens, and frankly, the difference in quality is so minimal, plus the cheaper Lumix lens is quieter and will focus nearer and goes to f22. For me, it's the better choice for these reasons.
