Prime lens, Light and compact (with f/1.7)! Price is good but it is plastic

This lens was doing the trick. I do want a 10mm one tho.

It’s a great lens for GX85. It’s quick due to the camera. It gives relatively good Bokeh. I just move around to get the subject into the frame. It gives me excellent and sharp images. Priced possession now.

I have used this lens for about a week now. I love the quality that this lens gives you at its price point. For less than $200 you get such an amazing, quality lens. What a bargain!

Purchased this as my first prime lens (for GX85), so I don’t really have anything to compare it to. Definitely an upgrade over my kit lens. Nice shallow depth of field. Plastic but great build quality! Great price when on sale!

This Panasonic Luminary G 25mm f/1.7 lens is Superb. If you are looking for a high quality lens capable of low light applications, this lens is Superb & very reasonably priced!

This is a great lens to add in your bag. Quality of this lens is amazing and I've used it many of my video productions. Light lens, value for your bucks prime lens.

Everyone will eventually need a 50mm 1.8 for their photography needs. And this very affordable Rome from Panasonic is perfect. The Leica counterpart is more expensive and I have heard this one holds its own quite well. And after trying it for my gh4 and g7, I couldn't agree more. It really is super quick, sharp and crisp. Handles 4K video very well also. Highly recommend this prime.

Really awesome lens. I am a novice/amateur when it comes to photography and this is my first lens that ive purchased, and first lens that isnt my stock lens. I would highly recommend it to anyone that is trying to get a fast prime lens. Takes really nice and sharp shots. Like i said i am an amateur/novice so i may not have as much of a devoloped eye as someone who has been doing photography for a long time and may not be using this lens to its full capacity but i still feel like it is a awesome lens that is worth having in the arsenal.

This is a great lens that complements the GH5 like magic. It has a lot of aperture and is very sharp. Very pleased with purchase. Great for that blurry background look.

I got this lens to use for shooting indoors, hand held, low light. It does the job with good results. I however generally use my 12-35mm f2.8 panasonic zoom. It produces near equivalent quality with the flexibility of a zoom lens. Does cost a lot more, but worth the money in my opinion.

This tiny lens is excellent! For pros and novices alike. For the price it delivers more than its worth. Sharpness is edge to edge and bokeh is creamy. Must have for photo and video

I have the Olympus 45mm 1.8 on my camera but it is too long for indoor shots. I bought this Panasonic lens and the image quality is equivalent to the Olympus 45 but at a focal length more suitable for my indoor shots. It would be nice f it was as small as the Olympus lens but it is still small for what it is. Compare it to a Nikon or Canon lens of the same focal length and f-stop. The Nikon or Canon will be much heavier too. I bought this here at BB on sale and what a great deal it was.

Loved it, great follow up to the kit lens works good in low light! Nice blur or bokeh to the background.

My only regret is that I went YEARS without buying native micro four thirds glass for my GH5. I went all that time using adapters and sigma art glass on it that I overlooked the native mount and lens quality. This lens is a real bargain and best bang for your buck. The autofocus is decent on my GH5 (better than using metabones adapters and the Sigma 18 - 35 f1.8). It’s worth the money. Buy it now!

Excellent bokah, a must have upgrade for any Lumix over the stock lens. Great price too!

Bought this for our Panasonic G7, which is mostly used for making videos. It's very sharp and at 25 mm this is equivalent (in Micro Four-Thirds format) to a standard 50mm, the all-time favorite all-around focal length. And at f1.7 it's very fast, so I need much less light and can shoot in more settings while keeping my subject cooler. Also the price on sale at BestBuy was unbeatable. No negatives to this lens at all.

This lens is one of the best lens you can purchase for low cost! Lens perform very well with nice sharp images and bokeh.

Great lens for my GH4. Love the size and weight as well.

The Panasonic Lumix G 25mm F1.7 is rather big compared to other MFT lenses. It is only a little smaller than the Panasonic Leica 25mm F1.4 and it is significantly longer than the Olympus 25mm F1.8. But overall the Panasonic 25mm F1.7 is still a compact lens.The lens mount is made of metal, but the rest of the lenses exterior is made of plastic. However once mounted to the camera the build quality of the Lumix 25mm 1.7 seems alright. The focus ring of the lens is also well damped.
