Panasonic Lumix G Vario 7-14mm F4 ASPH

Panasonic Lumix G Vario 7-14mm F4 ASPH is the ultimate ultra wide zoom lens for Micro Four Thirds system, and it is priced accordingly at around $900.  It is considered compact size for traditional SLR users, but it feels fairly large and heavy when compared to other Micro Four Thirds lens offering from Olympus and Panasonic.  Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 9-18mm F4-5.6 is tiny in comparison, but lacks optical quality of this Panasonic lens and constant aperture.

Another important thing to note when comparing these two lenses is the difference in focal length.  2mm in wider end and 4mm in the narrower do not seem like much, but it renders images in distinctly different perspective.   If you like to produce the sharpest ultra wide shots with your m43 camera, this is a must have lens.   This lens was originally released with a price tag of $1,199, and it has come down to about $900.  We will watch for further price reduction or special deals on this marvelous lens.
