I purchased this lens for a Panasonic DMC GF5kk. Is this lens for this camera? I'm new with Panasonic cameras. Thanks

Yes it will fit/work perfectly fine just like it would with any panasonic or Olympus interchengable camera...same exact mount.

Yes. This lens conforms to the Micro Four Thirds standard put forth by Panasonic and Olympus. Any micro four thirds lens will work with any micro four thirds camera.

Hi, thanks question. This lens can not contact for Lumix DMC-GF3. Thanks in advance.

Yes it will. It is a micro four thirds lens, and so is the DMC-GF6...And it's a decent lens for the price!

You mean the DMC-FZ200 right? I ordered the conversion lens for it but I did not have right adapter, its still a mystery to me as to which adapter really fits perfectly onto it because the one I ordered did not.

If possible, try the lens with a second camera. Otherwise, I hope you retained the original packaging because you should return and exchange it for another one. I've found the 12-40 to be solidly built and is. Mine works flawlessly with both my Olympus and Panasonic cameras. Just get another one -- no company's stuff is perfect. 20+ years selling cameras taught me that.

I'm currently using this lens with Nikon D5200, just get the nikon mount and you're sorted. Very sharp results if you do your part :)

Hi, thanks question. Perhaps this lens can not work Aoto Foucus for GH2. I think much better More new type lens for Panasonic. Thanks in advance.

I don't know I have a panasonic gh2 and the lens has an adapter that fits my camera. However it will not auto focus and I have found it to be difficult to get a clear focus with the lens i will probably return it.

I only have the version of this lens for Sony's NEX line of cameras (E-Mount), so unfortunately I could not tell you why or why not the Micro 4/3 version will work for your Panasonic. Sorry.

I would say NO, Sherrill. I bought the lens for my Olympus Mini-PM1, in the hope that at least I would get two images per frame. Yes, the lens fits on the Olympus, but the camera told me "lens not supported" - doh. Had to by another Panasonic body (Lumix GF6), as the lens was useless, otherwise. It now works (on the Panasonic body), but the results are disappointing, at best. What can one expect from the two lenses so close to each other? I would stay away from it. If you are interested in stereo photography, get a Fuji W3 Stereo camera (I have two...). They are very good, by comparison! Best, Hans I would say NO, Sherrill.

I don't own a Panasonic so I cannot relate concerning its fit. On the other hand, if it works you may notice that it will operate like a wide angle. I had used it with my 18-55mm lens and it seems to make it work like a 16-55mm. However, at its extreme focal distance (wide angle) there is some obvious vignette ( a darkening at each of the 4 corners). it was not too expensive so I am not going to bother to return it. The "macro-feature" aspect -when used up close to an object the lens behaves a bit like a magnifying glass. It is Ok, but not great as a macro lens.

I got the G2 a month ago. It's a fun camera and I'm glad I chose it. I like it's small size, light weight, the bright EVF, the articulating LCD, and the touch screen. I wish it had In Body Image Stabilization so it would be steady when I use my old Nikon lenses, with an adapter, that don't have it. Also the kit lens has a plastic mount that isn't durable. Panasonic makes a few 4/3rds mount lenses but Olympus and Sigma make a lot more. The Panasonic G2 has a micro 4/3rds mount that is smaller than the 4/3rds mount. There are adapters to use 4/3rds lenses on M4/3rds cameras but not the other way around. So if you get the G2 you can use your Panasonic lens on it with an adapter. There are also M4/3rds adapters for lenses made by most manufacturers, but in manual focus. Here is a link for a list of all lenses that comply with the 4/3rds standard, meant for Panasonic M4/3rds cameras. http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/dsc/connect/g1.html

There is a minolta adapter available for the G1 panasonic. I also have a set of Minolta Rokkor Lenses i used with my XK. I have not seen one for the GF1 one as of yet.

I bought it for my dmc-gx7 and it fits with the supplied adaptor ring so I imagine if it doesn't fit exactly, it will with the ring. However, the lens does not screw tightly into place, so it is attached very precariously and several times came off in my hand. I ended up holding it in place for fear of it dropping off. I intend to return it to Panasonic.
