Description and Reviews

Key Take-Aways:

The Panasonic Lumix S 28-200mm f/4-7.1 Macro OIS is a compact 7x superzoom lens weighing 413g, featuring 17 elements in 13 groups, 0.5x macro capability at 28mm, optical image stabilization providing up to 6.5 stops when combined with IBIS, and weather sealing. Professional reviews praise its remarkably small size and lightweight design for a full-frame superzoom, good center sharpness throughout the range, excellent stabilization, minimal focus breathing for video, and useful macro capability, while noting softer corners especially at 200mm, susceptibility to flare and ghosting when shooting into the sun, poor sunstars, and the slow variable aperture limiting low-light performance. As of September 13, 2025, user sentiment indicates the lens is appreciated as a versatile travel companion that “never gets in the way,” with photographers praising its convenience for one-lens solutions despite optical compromises compared to primes or shorter-range zooms.

From Panasonic:

A wide and long zoom range of 28-200mm with the world’s smallest and lightest design. With half-life size macro photography, this single lens covers a wide range of scenarios.
