About the Panasonic H-FS045200 Telephoto Lens
Get extensive telephoto power with the Panasonic 45-200mm f/4-5.6 lens. Its broad telephoto focal range lets you get up-close-and-personal shots of subjects near and far; you can zero in on a nearby surfer, then zoom way out to capture a far-distant sailboat. Even better, the lens has built-in optical image stabilization, so your pictures remain crisply detailed even when your hand is a little shaky or lighting isn't perfect.
This nifty lens was developed for cameras using the Micro Four Thirds standard, such as the exceptional Panasonic DMC-G1, DMC-GF1, and DMC-GH1.

Bought this lens for my Lumix GF1, great addition to my camera, nice zoom abilities and good quality photos. I find the auto focus to be a little slow, particularly when hand-held, but using a tripod will definitely help. Overall very satisfied with the price and the performance.
