Title: Long lens for Panasonic G2
Post by: PeterAit on June 24, 2011, 10:40:28 am

I am looking for people's recommendations and experiences for long lenses for this camera. I want something at least 500mm equivalent, which I guess would be about 250 actual mm. Vibration reduction would be a plus! Thanks.

The Panasonic 100-300mm is quite decent.

I'll second Michael's recommendation. Lot of reach in a small package. Very nice IS as well.

Couple of shots:
