Key Specs
- Lens Mount Compatibility: Micro Four Thirds
- Lens Type: Standard Zoom
- Minimum Focal Length: 12 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Focal Length: 35 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Aperture: f/2.8 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)

Needed for Panasonic GH4
If one is spending a considerable amount on the GH4 camera body, don't cheap out on the lens. It is equally if not more important! I burnt through four lenses two of which was very good counterfeits, before settling on this one. The image from this lens is far superior than others up to this price. Although the Panasonic branded 15-150 produced a sharp image, the lack of image stabilization made it a bad suite for me. In contrast, this 12-35mm model has been great in hand. The lower F2.8 works better in low-light but not exceptional. The real win here is the water-resistant and dust-proof feature. This lens is now my one lens fits all.

Best micro 4/3 lens I own
I own a pretty full collection of micro 4/3 lenses - the 45-175, the 14mm f/2.5, the 14-42 X collapsing power zoom, even the renowned 20 f/1.7. However, the 12-35 is on my GX1 pretty much full time because it's sharp, fast, and flexible. Like the highly regarded 24-70 f/2.8 lenses for the Canon and Nikon systems, this lens goes wide enough and long enough for a huge variety of situations, it has premium build quality (metal body and lens mount), fast focusing, image stabilization, and excellent image quality.

Best option for GH4
If you have a gh4, this is pretty much a must have. Image stabilization works fairly well. Optics are very sharp. My only complaint is that I wish it were internal zoom.
