  • Panasonic Lumix S Pro 70-200 f/2.8 or 70-200 f/4, which one would you pick? Also not sure if you notice but I've tried a few new things in this video, let me know what do you think about the video?
  • what a super review, answering all of my questions and then some with clear examples and explanations of your results thank you richard!

    Finally a comprehensive review of this lens! And great to have a comparison with the f4 version. So far some reviewers have suggested that the f2.8 isn‘t worth the extra investment, some people even saying the f4 is sharper. Which does not seem to be the case based on your comparisons. So thanks, Richard, for a very helpful review. As for the dislikes? This is totally beyond me! Hopefully this does not demotivate you from doing more fab reviews!

    Great review mate, I have been looking for a review like this to help with a future decision!

    Great video. Thanks for all the info. I love, love, love my S1 but am worried about investing too much into the system as there seems to be a strange lack of reviews online about the L Mount lenses. All I have now is the kit 24-105 and it's amazing. I want one of these 70-200 but I may wait to see how things shake out over the next year.

    Amazing video. Thank you for the time and effort making this.
  • Very helpful review, thank you. I’m thinking that due to the weight of the f/2.8 I will go for the F/4 on my S5. It will do a fine job for me! Your review is very comprehensive and I can’t thank you enough for answering all my questions!

    Thanks for your video. Will be great to have your content with the timeline of the video with categories. Thanks for your work my friend. From Chile.

    Thanks for this review. I have the S5 with the Pro 50mm and the Pro 24-70mm. I would like to add this 70-200mm 2.8 but I have two questions. Is the lens too large and heavy for the S5 compared to the S1 ? And how good is the stabilization of this lens for video with the S5 ? Thank you very much.
  • Nice review Richard! I quite like the Lumix S Pro 70-200 f/4 but it seems the Lumix S Pro 70-200 f/2.8 even better!
  • Thanks for the review, Richard. Can't even think of buying new equipment at this time, but it was a good watch, none the less. Just curious if you noticed how parfocal the lens might be.
  • @MrEchyballs
    Classic Richard very detailed review. like it . BTW I bought s1 & s1H without any lenses at the moment lol.now only need 1 more S1H then good to go . been trying to pull some strength to get a massive discount otherwise have to rob bank. omg
  • Very good and useful comparison. Thank you. I would be interested in better understanding where the Lumix S 70-300mm (non-Pro) compares with these lenses at up to 200mm.
  • Another great review! That lens is awesome (2.8)! Can you confirm (if you still have it) if it's parfocal as well? Thanks!

    Hi,Richard I really enjoy watching your review. Your review is best!! Do you have a plan to make a review of sigma 70-200mm f2.8 dg dn os sports? I’m looking forward to see your comparsion review of LUMIX S PRO 70-200mm f2.8 vs SIGMA 70-200mm f2.8 dg dn os sports😊

    Hi! Bummer this is outside of my budget... What telephoto would you recommend for MFT? (I don't mind buying 2nd hand) Thank you!

    Hey Richard: What camera you personally use most of the time? Panasonic or Nikon ??
