  • Panasonic 30mm f/2.8 ASPH MEGA OIS LUMIX G MACRO

    10 out of 10 points and recommended
    Sharp! Fast and light

    I use this lens for operating room and specimen pictures. The Olympus 60 mm which I also own is not practical for this purpose, but this Panasonic 30 mm is perfect. Specifically the subject distance is too far to use effectively for large specimens with the 60 mm, yet the 30 mm lets you get as close as you need without having to stand on a ladder or put the specimen on the floor for proper framing. I can also use the lens for general photography and portraits. It works well for me. This is a light weight plastic lens with a metal mount and nice finish-excellent for what is does!
