Have the Lumix G Vario HD H-VS 4.0 to 5.8 / 14-140 at a Lumix G2 for the past 2 months of use. Here, this lens has established with me as Allzweckobjetiv. In weight, it is not to be compared with the standard 14-42er course, but is also versatile. You need to extreme zoom, you can lay down our 45-200er safely at home. This telephoto zoom lens works of high quality and is generally very well made. Especially when shooting in a lower noise level when zooming noticeable. Where even a strong scraping noise can be heard when the standard lens, work at 14-140er very quiet. The Zommring can be turned a bit heavier, but should be sufficient so that the lens is not adjusted directly while shooting down himself. With the image quality I am thoroughly satisfied. The only drawback in the operation of a G2, I can make in conjunction with the built-in flash. At 14mm focal length and flash (of course without lens hood) there are in the lower area of the lens shading. If even slightly zoomed shadow disappears. Remedy creates an external flash here. Conclusion: For landscape photography top, during indoor shots at wide use external flash.
