Of course, this time offering automatic (aperture priority).
A lower zoom lends itself even at maximum magnification is reached but of course only at maximum zoom. In wide-angle, the black edge of Adapers of course (as in the original lens from Panasonic and the teleconverter) visible.
Once you become accustomed to the handling, take great macro photos such as portraits of flies.

How often at Amazon are also found here Reviews from customers who do not know what they're doing, for example, wrote a customer, he could not freehand pictures and sees no push a black border. Oh no, surprise!
For reasonably experienced macro photographer for the price definitely recommended. Some of the other up lens I will get me by and by.
