12-35mm / F2.8 Versatile High PerformanceGet high F2.8 brightness over the entire zoom range with this high-speed zoom lens. Its focal length of 12 - 35mm (35mm camera equivalent: 24 - 70mm) covers wide-angle to standard to medium telephoto shooting. Not only ideal for capturing landscapes while traveling, this lens’s wide diameter gives you top-quality indoor shots too. Perceptive and defocusing effects add to the features, giving you exactly the kind of photos and videos you’re looking for. Its splash/dust/freezeproof design also makes it great for shooting outdoors, so you can use it in nearly any weather with a splash/dust/freezeproof LUMIX camera and be creative. |
Splash / Dust / Freezeproof Design Withstands the ElementsBrave the elements in nearly any kind of weather or shooting location. This lens features a splash / dust / freezeproof construction* that is tough enough to withstand even heavy field use. It protects the lens system inside from sand, rain and more, making it perfect for shooting under harsh conditions. Now there is nothing holding you back from capturing the creative nature or landscape shots you want. *The lens supports this feature in conjunction with splash/dust/freezeproof LUMIX cameras. |
Power O.I.S. Compensates Camera Shake for Crisp ImagesCapture scenes carefree or at the spur of the moment. The optical image stabilization (O.I.S.) technology built directly into the lens ensures your photos will look great, with sharp blur-free contours across the entire picture. Taking highly popular MEGA O.I.S. further, this advanced technology immediately compensates even large camera shake and vibrations that may occur in photography. So you can capture true-to-life scenes without the need for a tripod. In the end, you’ll enjoy wonderfully crisp images. |

4K Video Support for High-Resolution RecordingWith video support any user has everything they need for recording with their LUMIX camera. Not only does it perform smooth aperture changes so there are no sudden jumps in exposure, it also boasts a silent design for enhanced capture of the scene’s audio. What’s more, the stunning AF performance of this lens records excellent 4K video, where precise focusing is essential. |
Nano Surface Coating Reduces ReflectionsPut an end to unwanted ghosting and flaring – the Nano Surface Coating has been applied to lenses within the system. This special, ultra-thin coating was developed originally by Panasonic to reduce bothersome reflections across the entire light spectrum. The result: crystal-clear pictures even if you’re photographing a light source in the dark. |
High-Quality Lens Construction for Uniform Image QualityAspherical (ASPH) lenses reduce size and weight, effectively preventing spherical and distortion aberration. Ultra-high refractive index (UHR) lenses improve optical performance, reduce size and weight, and achieve uniform image quality from the center to the edges of the image. Ultra Extra-Low Dispersion (UED) lenses correct chromatic aberration rendering sharp, high-contrast images with clear colors from corner to corner. |
MTF Chart Details Optical PerformanceFor lenses that are capable of compensating distortion, the horizontal axis of the MTF shows the distance from the center of the corrected image. |

I finally decided to get this lens as it has an equivalent zoom range of a 24-70mm and constant aperture of f2.8. I was expecting slightly improved images.
I was wrong! The results I got were spectacular! This has to be the sharpest lens I own. Period. Even compared to my lenses in other systems (I own Canon and Nikon full frame dslrs), this lens is truly amazing!
M4/3 is a small format. It takes a lot of work to get stunning images, at least images comparable to larger formats like APS-C or FF. I can say that the images I get with this lens shooting RAW on my Panasonic GX85 give my bigger cameras a run for their money!
Chances are you are reading this because you are on the fence regarding getting this lens or not. All I can say is that yes, this is an amazing lens and it is definitely worth the money.
The only two drawbacks are that it is somewhat heavy, and the IS is barely noticeable. Compared to my lenses I use with my Canon and Nikon outfits, it is much lighter than my Nikon 16-35mm f4.0 and my Canon 16-35mm f4L, but it performs better than either one of those two! This Panasonic lens is comparable (in APS-C format cameras) to my Canon EF-S 17-55mm f2.8 and my Nikon 17-55mm f2.8 DX.
Had I known this lens was this good, I wouldn't have spent so much money on m4/3 primes.
I found that the extra stabilizer it has built in helps with low light photos. I can keep the ISO within reasonable limits and still get photos with no camera shake. The wider aperture (2.8) helps as well and I like that that stays stable no matter the magnification (12-35).
Some reviews seem to mix up this lens with the 35=100 lens, its sister so to speak. I have that lens as well and will probably use it a lot this Spring. My intent on getting both is that between the two lenses I can cover all normal situations when I'm shooting architecture, or nature. I normally am not a street photographer and would not use the 12-35 lens reviewed here in that way, as it is physically large and would attract attention. Fine for architecture though since it has the wide aperture (as does the 35-100).
all in all, from my perspective the 12-35 lens is an expensive purchase but well worth the expense.
Build quality is what I would expect for a lens of this cost (which was wildly expensive for me as a newbie, but apparently it's a reasonable cost relative to what some other lenses cost). It's solid, sturdy, has a hefty weight to it, the focus and zoom rings are smooth and satisfying, and the image stabilization is truly amazing to me. It makes hand-held shots look cinematic and smooth, I'm really impressed. I'm using this lens with the GH5, and together they make a pretty impressive pair.
I am just hobbyist photographer.. but I do love the quality of construction of this lens.
I would mention the sharpness through out the range... but in this day and age,,, that is pretty much a given in the technology of today...
I have read some nice reviews about using this lens in video mode. I have not gone to that zone as of yet,,, so I will not add my $.02 in that area.
