It's been a hot minute since I've played with a true superzoom, so I was unusually excited to see how Panasonic's new compact 28-200mm f/4-7.1 -- the L-mount's first all-in-one zoom lens -- performed.
Not even two months after announcing the remarkably compact Lumix S 100mm f/2.8 Macro lens, Panasonic is back with another lens for its full-frame cameras. The Lumix S 28-200mm f/4-7.1 Macro O.I.S. all-in-one zoom lens may not move the needle much for pros, but it fills an essential role in Panasonic's L-mount lens lineup. The new lens marks Panasonic's first wide-to-tele zoom for Lumix S Series cameras.
