  • Panasonic 100-400mm f/4-6.3 ASPH POWER OIS LEICA DG VARIO-ELMAR

    10 out of 10 points and recommended
    * quite short at 100mm * excellent image quality * excellent mechanics * excellent tripod coupling * not so expensive: little more money than a Nocticron but much more versatil * luminosity ok. (in my analogous times I had to take my photos with a 60
    none

    Best lens I ever bought in my life. No more comments!
    Note: the "stiff" zooming is caused by the customer's mistake: the lens is supplied with its zoom-lock-ring put into the "lock"-position. Please, unlock, turning it to the left (anti-clockwise). Otherwise it will remain stiff, until you destroy the mechanics of this lens. So be careful with it, to enjoy!
