Panasonic H-ES50200E Lumix G X Vario 50-200mm f/2.8-4.0 ASPH POWER O.I.S. Lens for Micro Four Thirds

The Panasonic H-ES50200E Lumix G X Vario 50-200mm f/2.8-4.0 ASPH lens pairs a bright f/2.8-4.0 aperture range with a versatile 100-400mm equivalent zoom, delivering professional-grade telephoto reach in a compact, weather-sealed body. Unlike typical telephoto zooms that sacrifice speed for range, this lens maintains excellent light gathering throughout the zoom, making it ideal for wildlife, sports, and portrait photography where subject isolation and low-light performance matter.

Highlights

• Bright f/2.8-4.0 maximum aperture for beautiful bokeh and low-light shooting
• POWER O.I.S. optical image stabilization for sharp handheld shots
• Dust, splash, and freeze-resistant construction for all-weather reliability
• Nano Surface Coating reduces flare and ghosting
• Fast, accurate autofocus with 240 fps drive capability

In daily use

From the sidelines of a soccer match to the quiet observation of birds at dawn, this lens adapts effortlessly. The 50-200mm focal range (100-400mm equivalent) covers everything from tight portraits to distant action. The rounded 9-blade diaphragm produces creamy, circular bokeh that makes subjects pop. With a minimum focus distance of 75 cm and a maximum magnification of 0.25x, you can also capture detailed close-ups without switching lenses. The zoom ring is smooth and well-damped, and the focus ring offers precise manual control when needed.
