Panasonic does however sell many lenses with optical stabilisation, partly to support older Lumix G cameras without built-in stabilisation, but also to work alongside newer bodies which do have built-in stabilisation to improve the result. Both will stabilize any lens you attach, even if the lens doesn’t have optical stabilisation. Panasonic more recently adopted sensor-shift technology and now offers it on most new Lumix G bodies apart from the cheapest ones. Stabilisation is another major selling point for Micro Four Thirds: Olympus pioneered body-based stabilisation (which shifts the sensor) and has long built it into every body. Conversely, with a larger inherent depth-of-field, you won’t need to close the aperture as much if you want to get more in focus. The end result though is you’ll need to choose lenses with very small f-numbers if you want to achieve very shallow depth-of-field effects with Micro Four Thirds. In terms of exposure though, an f-number on one system is the same as on another – the difference here refers only to equivalent coverage and depth-of-field.

If you’re looking to compare depth-of-field with full frame, then you’ll also need to double the f-number – so a 25mm f1.4 lens will deliver images with coverage and depth-of-field equivalent to a 50mm f2.8 lens on full frame. The Four Thirds sensors used in Olympus and Panasonic mirrorless cameras mean the field-of-view of all lenses is effectively reduced by two times compared to a full-frame system – so a 25mm lens will deliver a 50mm equivalent field-of-view. So if you’re looking for a lens for an Olympus or Panasonic camera, you’ve come to the right place! For more information on bodies, check out my Olympus Camera reviews and Panasonic Camera reviews pages. I’ll start with a quick guide of what to look out for, followed by my personal suggestions for building a variety of systems, and finally a list of all the models I’ve reviewed or tested and can recommend.
With multiple options available at each popular focal length, the choice can sometimes be bewildering, but on this page I’ll help you choose the best models. Having two major camera companies produce lenses for the same system coupled with being the first to launch a native mirrorless system means Micro Four Thirds also enjoys more lenses than any other mirrorless rivals.
Welcome to my Buyer’s Guide for Olympus and Panasonic lenses! Both companies share the same Micro Four Thirds standard for their mirrorless cameras, which means you can use lenses from either company on either body, or indeed any other lens designed for Micro Four Thirds.
