Who Is This Made For?

The Lumix G Vario 100-300mm F4-5.6 II Power OIS is for sports, wildlife, airshow and school-event photographers who need reach and stabilisation. It is the lens you reach for when the shot matters, and its compact design keeps the kit light.

Optics Designed for High-Resolution Sensors

The Lumix G Vario 100-300mm F4-5.6 II Power OIS uses 17 elements in 12 groups (1 ED). Aspherical and ED elements keep edges sharp and colour fringing low, and Panasonic's coatings control flare and ghosting for clear, high-contrast images. The angle of view is 12° to 4.1°.

Compact Design, Consistent Rendering

The F4-5.6 maximum aperture and 7 blades circular diaphragm produce smooth background blur and clean specular highlights. Minimum aperture is F22.

Fast, Quiet Autofocus

A stepping motor drives the focus group for fast, near-silent autofocus, with 240 fps sensor drive on Lumix G bodies and smooth focusing for video. Closest focus is 1.5 m with a maximum magnification of 0.21x.

Dust and Splash Resistant and Stabilised

The lens is sealed against dust and splashes and fitted with optical image stabilisation that combines with body I.S. on Lumix cameras as Dual I.S. 2 for steadier handheld shooting. It measures 73.6 mm x 126 mm and weighs approximately 520 g, and takes 67 mm filters.
