I LOVE the footage of the street musician! those presets are gorgeous ;)
that was totally accidental! Thanks dude!
Landscapers will love this lens 🤩
It's not landscape only zoom.:) It's just-walk-zoom lens. Good for walk on the park or on the city or on the travel. One lens for landscape, repo, portrait and tele to shot some birds or squirrel in the park.:) One to all.:)
yes! (to both comments)
Neither invested in L-Mount nor usually interested in super-zoom lenses, but being small and light with weather sealing and a very useful focal range plus macro capabilities this looks like a really nice lens for hiking!
I love your reviews! Especially i like your presents!
Thank you so much!
Wow, love your shots man! Thanks again
Thanks for watching! Thank you!
Nice video and I really like the singer at 4:44. Great performance. At similar moments, people forget about all those sharpness vignette etc and become hipnotyzed by meaningful things. That doesn't mean gear doesn't matter. Just sometimes it is not as important as it is on a lens review.
Thank you very much!
Great video. I’m so tempted to get this one for travel!
Thanks! I think it is a perfect lens for travel
Again great review!!
Thank you!
Awesome review Pav! 🔥🔥🔥 Such a fun lens.
Thank you! It really is
Exclusive 🎉love it
Thanks Ben!
Great review Pav! You have been busy!!
Thanks Richard! I haven't slept in 4 days 😂😂😂
Thank you for the great review! Wonderful pictures! Hoping this lens means a new FF body is on the way, ans this will get bundled as a kit lens. I read that Lumix did a similar thing with the 20-60 a few years ago.
I hope they will give people a choice of kit, this or 20-60 with all their cameras
Great travel lens, good review with many sample shots , can’t wait to buy the S1Rii with this kit lens😊
thank you! It is a solid option for literally everything
Thanks for another great video. You’ve been really busy lately!
Thank you!
No sleep for few days 😂
I feel like this lens was made for me. So happy it's finally made. I am a amateur travel photographer and I really hate the idea of switching lenses or carrying unnecessary bulk and drawing attention to myself. I am transitioning over from a Canon R7 with the 18-150mm kit lens (28-240mm FF), which is already quite small and similar to this kind of setup with the S5 II, but the quality of that setup was really lackluster to me. It doesn't come close to the quality which this lens seemingly provides, and I'm only sacrificing 40mm reach on the long end, and 8 megapixels sensor wise, but this new setup opens up a whole different arena to shoot video as well! Preordered this lens after watching this, thank you for helping me decide. Beautiful macro shots, by the way!
Finally, a good walking around and travel lens for S mount. Too bad about the F4+, but I like the weight/range. Thanks.
it is a trade of for the size. f7.1 at 200mm is totally usable and we have light and very small zoom
I liked how the last 2 releases of Lumix S (100mm macro and this) focused to be the lightest and smallest in the market, which is compelling for me. I'm certainly swap my Sigma 105mm macro for Lumix 100mm, and I'll also add this to my kit.
I liked the 20-60mm, but I rarely use the wider end and wished for a further reach, so this range is quite perfect for me. The aperture, while on paper seems bad, is actually comparable to 20-60mm in the same focal length and can focus even closer!
Thank you for a great review!
yes, they are smashing it with these lenses now.
It ius easy to dismiss this (or 20-60mm) because on paper they don't look great. In reality these two are two of the most versatile and best lenses I have used in a long time
@@PavSZ The 20-60mm is also so cheap when bought with the kit, it's like adding only $200, which is a no brainer for lens this good. The price when bought new standalone though is much less appealing, but thanksfully there is a lot of this in second hand market (mostly from the kit) for those that look for it.
I have many different camera lenses for my camera bodies. The last lens l bought for my Panasonic S5 and S5 MKII is a 70-300mm f4.5-5.6. The IBIS in the lens and S5 MKII allows for extremely sharp photos at slow shutter speeds.
it doe, I have reviewed 70-300 awhile ago
I wish Tamron would start making lenses for lumix as well. I own their 28 to 200 and the 2.8 aperture makes it so epic
Me too. Maybe one day
Great review as always. It seems like the ideal one lens for daytime travel photography. Then in the evening you take the 18mm f1.8 and a 28-70 f2.8 a heavier combination but you’re not carrying it around for long. Also the new 100 f2.8 is already on my list, L mount just gets better.
Absolutely! This is a combo that I would pack with me. This and 18mm
Thank you for watching!
What would you recommend instead for a single travel/content creator lens? I have 20-60, 50mm and a Tamron 90mm macro. I find it too time consuming to switch lenses on vacations. I also feel like I’m lacking depth of field in the 20-35mm focal length. I’m thinking sigma 16-28mm. But then I’m missing a good 35mm option. Also with the 1.5x crop in video I always find I’m shooting around the 50mm focal length unintentionally 🤔
what you are asking for does not exist.
You could try Sigma 24-70 f2.8 or simply 16-28 and 35 or 50mm
Great video thanks a lot , one question, can you say me if you prefer the quality of the Picture on this one or if you prefer the quality of the sigma 24-70 2.8 ?
they are two totally different lenses.
The quality would be very close in terms of sharpness, colour, contrast at the same aperture settings. However Sigma is bigger, heavier and have significantly wider aperture. This has got much bigger zoom range and the telephoto end, less wide though
Nice! I prefer a bridge camera though. That Panasonic FZ2500 is cheaper than this lens and has 20 megapixels, a nice 24mm-480mm Leica lens, IBIS, built in ND filter and shoots 4:2:2 10 bit 4K video. It's a shame these companies have stopped making newer bridge cameras but they need to protect their mirrorless camera lines.
yes, bridge cameras are great but you can't compare a bridge camera to a full frame camera and lens combo. Totally different tools for different jobs.
The darker image is minimal
And you can get around that by setting at the longer fstop before you zoom
yes.
Camera's dual ISO and lens' build in stabilisation make it totally usable in every situation
We need a smaller 70-200 f/2.8 from LUMIX 😅. I’ve been holding on to my massive Canon 70-200 f/2.8 plus Adapter for this reason. It’s the one lens I’m never excited to carry for travel work.
Totally agree!
Woah nice. I dont have s5ii but instead s5. Do you recommend this lense ?
absolutely
I’m holding out for the 16-300 f 2.8
If it was possible, it would be very big and very heavy.
I am holding out for the 8mm-800mm 1.8/f O.I.S with 10cm minimal focus distance...
Only if tamron would be part of the l mount alliance their 28-200 and 35-160 would be great on lumix
Yes! maybe one day
the sony rx10iv has better image quality than full frame cameras with approx 24-200mm zoom lens attached. has this lens managed to break that barrier and actually bring increased image quality?
this is a very wild claim. Sony RX10IV has got tiny 1" and very noisy sensor build in. Nice camera but quality wise all Sony full frame cameras will be better. This is also much higher quality on Lumix S5II. Not only almost no noise at ISO4000 (S5, S5II, S5IIx) but the lens is optically very solid too.
I would really like for someone to review it on the Leica SL2. After all Leica and Lumix have their collaborative partnership.
If someone will lend me Leica SL2 (or any Leica) I'll test it on it then
Good lens, but I prefer Sigma 2870/2.8 more, same size/weight/price.
good lens for sure but this has got much bigger reach, important to some people
On paper seems worse than the fantastic Tamron 28-200mm f2.8-5.6 for Sony, almost one full stop across all the range. But still worth trying...
but there is no Tamron for L-mount available.
Very good lens in its own right ... and it is smaller than Tamron
I don't like idea of this lens, with very dark end. Much better would be a exp. 24-150 or 24-135 with aperature from f/3.5 to f/5.6 or f/6.3 max on the end. It's looks like as ugly Canon's trend of lenses, darker than the should be with f/4.5 on beggining and f/7.1 on the end. Video of course very good and great review. :)
it only looks like it is not good enough on paper. In real world situations, in daytime, this lens is very good. if it had wider aperture, it would be much bigger. The size of it, makes it ideal lens for hiking or travelling with. One lens for everything
@@PavSZ This lens could be, and should be a bigger and heavier for better light and no one shouldn't critise for that. That range simply requires larger size and weight. 😉 CANON'S TRENDS WE SAY NO! 😁😅
@@lukaszs44 Canon has got one just like that
Thanks for the review, it seems like the ideal daytime holiday lens, and for the evening shots you take out your faster primes 18mm f1.8, 24-70 f2.8. Heavier but you’re not carrying them around for as long. Job done, glass of wine.
