Product Overview

Panasonic Leica DG Vario-Elmar 100-400mm F4.0-6.3 ASPH Power OIS is a super telephoto zoom lens for Micro Four Thirds-mount. It covers the MFT image circle. Introduced by Panasonic in 2016, it has 20 elements in 13 groups.
Like most zoom lenses, the Panasonic Leica DG Vario-Elmar 100-400mm F4.0-6.3 ASPH Power OIS is externally-zooming. Fortunately, Panasonic has provided a zoom lock that at least stops zoom creep. For incremental weathers, Panasonic is kind enough to include weather sealing.
As a super telephoto zoom lens, the Panasonic Leica DG Vario-Elmar 100-400mm F4.0-6.3 ASPH Power OIS can be quite useful for wild-life and landscape photography. Built-in image stabilization is almost a must-have at this focal range, and this lens does not disappoint on this front. Owners will also like the available tripod collar.
