Telephoto reach for Micro Four Thirds
This Panasonic Lumix G Vario 100-300mm f/4-5.6 II POWER O.I.S. Lens covers a 200-600mm equivalent range on Micro Four Thirds bodies, making it suitable for wildlife, nature and sports photography. One extra-low dispersion element reduces colour fringing across the zoom range while a rounded 7-blade diaphragm produces smooth out-of-focus highlights.
Quiet focus and stabilisation
A linear autofocus motor delivers quick, quiet and precise focusing during stills and video capture. The built-in POWER Optical Image Stabilizer works with Dual I.S. on compatible Lumix cameras to suppress camera shake at long focal lengths. Splash and dustproof construction allows continued shooting in challenging weather.
No bundled accessories included
The lens ships without additional accessories or software, so photographers must supply their own filters, hoods or cases. Buyers who need a wider angle of view or faster maximum aperture will need a different optic.

Questions about this item
How do I mount this Micro Four Thirds lens and enable the POWER O.I.S. stabilisation correctly?
Align the red mounting index on the lens barrel with the dot on the camera body, twist clockwise until it clicks, then set the O.I.S. switch on the lens barrel to ON and activate Dual I.S. in the camera menu if your Lumix body supports it.
What routine care does the splash and dustproof construction need to stay sealed?
Wipe the barrel and front element with a dry microfibre cloth after exposure to spray or dust; check the rubber mount gasket for grit before each shoot and replace it if it shows cracks or flattening.
At what aperture does diffraction start to soften detail on this 200-600mm equivalent zoom?
Diffraction becomes visible around f/22, the minimum aperture marked on the lens, so stop down only as far as needed for depth of field.
