Reviewer score 76%The Pansonic Lumix G 25mm F1.7 ASPH is an affordable and capable option for Four-Thirds shooters seeking something more versatile than the kit lens. It's well-built, compact, and fast/quiet to focus, making it a good choice for stills and video shooters alike. Panasonic takes pride in the smoothness/polishing of its aspherical surfaces/molds, and it shows here. The bokeh – or quality of the out-of-focus regions produced by this 25mm – is fairly pleasing.
