Quality

It is not only a great macro the quality of images when used as a day to day 60mm lens are also sharp and clear with good contrast

I have it paired with the em5 mark ii and could not be happier with the purchase

The quality of macro images is stunning

And people i share my pictures with have been blown away with the quality of the pictures i take now

Price

Since it doesnt have ois the cost is well below its panasonic rivals

The price is also reasonable and i got it at a discount

Packaging/appearance

Lens hood is not included in original packaging

Competitiveness

I have used another lens on my lumix gx7 but for the price and versatility i think this one is amazing

I’m coming from a fujifilm xt2 w 3 prime lenses

Perhaps with a focusing rail and controlled lighting conditions
