Featuring advanced Nano Surface Coating to minimize reflections, dual Extra-low Dispersion lenses to reduce chromatic aberration, and POWER Optical Image Stabilizer for sharp images in low light, it delivers versatile focal length coverage equivalent to 90-350mm. Its power zoom mechanism enables smooth, precise zooming, making it ideal for portraits, landscapes, and action shots. ## Description The new LUMIX G X VARIO PZ 45-175mm/F4.0-5.6 ASPH./POWER O.I.S. lens features superb image rendering for lifelike textures and crisp, edge-to-edge contrast. A unique Nano Surface Coating technology minimizes reflections at entire visual light range (380nm-780nm) for a dramatic reduction of ghosts and light flare, resulting in outstandingly clear picture quality. Using a Multi-Actuator Floating Inner Focus System to control three lens groups separately the LUMIX G X VARIO PZ 45-175mm/F4.0-5.6 ASPH./POWER O.I.S. achieves a reduction in both size and weight without compromising picture quality. Boasting outstanding compactness, the lens is approximately 90mm in length and 7.4oz in weight, resulting in ultra-high mobility. Offering a versatile zoom range of 45-175mm the LUMIX G X VARIO PZ 45-175mm/F4.0-5.6 ASPH./POWER O.I.S. allows distant subjects to be captured sharply at the tele-end. Also notable, the lens is extremely suitable for portrait and landscape shots, as its high contrast and resolution helps images shot at the wide end maintain exceptional quality, and the zoom lever allows for quick and stable zooming, even while shooting a moving object. The new lens system features two Extra-low Dispersion (ED) lenses which suppress chromatic aberration and contribute to high descriptive performance across the entire zoom range 45-175mm. The POWER O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) integrated into the LUMIX G X VARIO PZ 45-175mm/F4.0-5.6 ASPH./POWER O.I.S. makes it easy to shoot sharp images even in low-lit situations. With improved sensitivity of the gyro sensor, the new POWER O.I.S. also suppresses large, slow movements two times more effectively while small, fast movements are compensated for by the conventional MEGA O.I.S. ## Features - 90mm-350mm in 35mm equivalent zoom - Nano Surface Coating technology minimizes reflections at entire visual light range - POWER O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) integrated into the lens makes it easy to shoot sharp images even in low-lit situations - Power zoom; Minimum Aperture: F22 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Asin | B005J5TZWK | | Best Sellers Rank | #59 in Mirrorless Camera Lenses | | Brand | Panasonic | | Built In Media | lens, lens cap | | Camera Lens | 14 elements in 10 groups (2 aspherical lenses , 2 ED lens) | | Color | Black | | Compatible Camera Mount | Micro Four Thirds | | Compatible Devices | Panasonic DC-GX850, Panasonic DC-GH5, Panasonic DMC-GM5, Panasonic DMC-G7, Panasonic Lumix DC-G100, Olympus E-PL8, Olympus E-M1, Olympus PEN E-PL9 OB, Olympus PEN-F, Panasonic G9 Refurbished, Olympus OM-D E-M1X, Olympus E-M10 Mark II, Olympus E-PL3, Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark III, Panasonic DMC-G6KK, Olympus E-P5, Olympus OMD E-M1, Panasonic DMC-GF5, Olympus Pen E-PL6, Panasonic DMC-GF6, Olympus PEN E-PL10, Panasonic DC-GH5 Refurbished, Panasonic DC-GX9 Refurbished, Panasonic DMC-GF2, Olympus E-M10 | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (209) 4.5 out of 5 stars | | Exposure Control Type | Automatic | | Focal Length Description | Focal Length f=45-175mm | | Focus Type | Micromotor | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00885170052291 | | Image Stabilization | Optical | | Item Weight | 210 g | | Lens | Standard | | Lens Coating Description | Nano AR Coating | | Lens Color | Black | | Lens Design | Zoom | | Lens Fixed Focal Length | 17.5 centimeters | | Lens Mount | Micro Four Thirds | | Manufacturer | Panasonic | | Manufacturer Part Number | H-PS45175K | | Maximum Aperture | 22 f_stop | | Maximum Focal Length | 17.5 centimeters | | Media Type | ProductImage, EnhancedContent | | Minimum Aperture | 22 | | Minimum Focal Length | 45 millimeters | | Model Name | lumix | | Model Number | H-PS45175K | | Number Of Diaphragm Blades | 7 | | Number Of Items | 1 | | Photo Filter Size | 46 millimeters | | Real Angle Of View | 27 degrees | | Screen Size | 1.77 inches | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Upc | 041114948796 012301987331 885170052291 653965477853 411378263025 088020618641 | | Video Capture Format | MP4 | | Video Capture Resolution | 1920 x 1080 | | Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | Zoom Ratio | 4:1 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Panasonic - **Camera Lens Description:** 14 elements in 10 groups (2 aspherical lenses , 2 ED lens) - **Compatible Mountings:** Micro Four Thirds - **Focal Length Description:** Focal Length f=45-175mm - **Lens Type:** Standard ## Images ![LUMIX G X Vario Power Zoom Lens, 45-175MM, F4.0-5.6 ASPH, MIRRORLESS Micro Four Thirds, Power Optical I.S, H-PS45175K (USA Black) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+LCsjQLML.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Glad I spent a little more than the 45-200: incredibly lightweight and compact, great optics, smooth and silent zoom *by on Reviewed in the United States February 16, 2013* I have just gotten into micro 4/3. I was impressed by the reviews of newer micro 4/3 bodies. I am an old 35mm user and I previously had an E-volt 410 which I really liked. But I wanted something smaller and that would capture video. There are some great point and shoots. But I wanted faster focus, crisp and fast shooting, and to have access to a wide variety of lenses and creative control. I also wanted something that took good video.But I also wanted to go light and compact. So here is why in my opinion someone wanting a telephoto for their m43 should consider this over the 45-200. Light and compact. That had to be one of the reasons you went for m43. This weighs I believe 210 grams compared to 380. It is also remarkably compact. It takes astounding video. Probably you went m43 to also have good video capabilities.I watched many YouTube videos of the 45-175 in action compared to the 45-200. You can see a definite edge to the 45-175. It focuses faster when zooming in and out and is a much smoother zoom. The video quality is also professional quality. Well I can say outside I have gotten the best video I have ever shot from cameras and even stand alone camcorders. Panasonic calls these lenses 'HD' and they were designed with pictures AND video in mind. And it shows.Pictures are incredibly detailed and vibrant. I am using a DMC-G3 and outside there is a very fast focus. It locks quickly. I haven't noticed the problems of double images. This lens was shipped with firmware 1.1 so maybe that is why. I was concerned about that but ultimately even if it had been an issue I think the positives and the 95% of the time when it probably would not have been an issue were okay with me. There is good bokeh. I have uploaded a pic of leaves taken the day I got the lens on intelligent auto on the G3. I think pretty impressive.Is the lens perfect? No. Indoors it can hunt for focus and the video is good indoors but not superb like the outdoors. But I did not intend this to be my indoor lens. Don't get me wrong I have taken many good pictures and videos indoors trying out the abilities of the lens, it is just better suited to outdoors.Overall given how light and compact it is, the excellent picture results, and the even better outdoor video, I highly recommend this lens. I feel like I am getting a lens for the next 5 to 10 years of m43 use. I personally like taking video. Maybe because I have a 2.5 year old. So spending a little more for a nano-coated much more compact lens was worth it. Check out the YouTube videos. If video and picture quality is important as well as size and weight this is the definite zoom lens you should get for your m43. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The most underrated lens in the entire lineup! *by on Reviewed in the United States September 21, 2012* I've been using this lens for the last couple of months with Olympus E-PM1 to great success. Very sharp wide open at all focal lengths even for distant objects. I have not experienced any OIS issues others have been reporting. OIS is disabled on Olympus bodies so I wouldn't know anyway. The lens is light and compact (46mm filter thread), the zooming is internal so the lens does not extend. Power zoom feature (optional) is very useful for video and also for stills. I find it very precise and superior to manual zooming. I use power zoom exclusively with this lens. The pace of zooming is control by how hard you tilt the toggle conveniently located on the left. Image quality is superb. Great color, contrast and sharpness across all focal lengths wide open, no need to stop down (it doesn't get visibly better anyway). My experience is in agreement with many reviews which said that the lens is optimized for wide open shooting. This is important because it is not a bright lens and one would have to watch the shutter speed so using apertures as large as possible is recommended.Compared to Olympus 40-150mm (I used to own one), Panasonic 45-175mm is better in every way:- Better optics. The lens is sharper especially for shooting at a distance (you would need to stop down Oly 40-150 to f8 to get acceptable corner to corner sharpness, plus Oly is not that sharp at full zoom)- Has noticeably better contrast and color- Slightly faster AF especially at full zoom but more so in lower light (tested on same body). The AF is significantly faster during video (C-AF) vs Oly 40-150mm (same E-PM1 body)- Internal zoom (IMO, all zooms should be like this, we're in 2012)- Power zooming (invaluable for video). Yet regular manual zoom is still there- Useful additional zoom range (175mm vs 150mm)- The lens is supposedly a little longer than Oly 40-150mm but it feels smaller due to much smaller filter thread (46mm vs 58mm) and feels much smaller in actual use due to internal zooming (Oly feels gigantic when extends and easily overwhelms small m43 cameras)- MUCH better build quality, rubberized zoom/MF ring, solid metal mount, made in Japan- Comes with a very nice and compact reversible hood, pinch lens cap (perfect for use with the hood) and a lens pouch ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best in its class, from my sampling of 3 lenses *by on Reviewed in the United States November 9, 2025* Moved from full-frame to MFT, hoping to lighten my gear - mainly the telephoto lens. Using the OM3 with 12-45mm. So I tried the 35-100mm and 45-150 after reading good things, and returned both.I wanted to love the 35-100 - the silver version is a beautiful, tiny lens. But alas, the range was just not that handy, and the quality was sub par. The 45-150 was bigger and less pleasing to use, but offered more range. Alas, the quality was sub par. They both exhibited a lot of chromatic aberration and sharpness was lacking.I was weary of the 45-175 since I read the improvement in quality, if any, is insignificant and the price was double, and because of the zoom-by-wire.Well, let me tell you what I like about this lens:1) Off the bat, I turned out to love the zoom-by-wire! Even though I only shoot stills, it is pleasing and relaxing. Zooming is smooth and kind of... limitless? Sounds funny, I know. But switching back to my pro 12-45 manual zoom lens is the hard part! It feels constricting in the boundaries and kind of jumpy, through no fault of its own apart from being a normal manual lens. The only bad part is that rarely my grip would catch the zoom lever and I'd have a moment of not being sure while it's not zooming like I wanted, but not really a bother.2) As lightweight as the 45-150. Coming from full frame, I used to carry the nikon 75-150mm, about 500 grams - and that's as compact as they come in FF. The 45-175 gives me more than twice the reach (350mm eq.) for less than half the weight.3) Does not extend with zoom - I love that in a lens. Both better for lens durability (mechanically and through dust getting through) and kind of reduces the toy factor of the two previous I tried.4) Build is good, while both the others felt cheap.5) Range feels enough.6) It is sharp enough to crop X2.7) ZERO chromatic aberration. All edges are smooth.8) Good colors.9) Bokeh - frankly, I love it, though sometimes it is not buttery smooth, it has character.It is not a pro lens, BUT when people say that about the 35-100 and the 45-150 it means something completely different from this one. The first two are both very obviously on a different level from pro. This lens, at least my copy, literally has no faults in image. It is not a pro lens "only" in the sense that it's not fast (aperture wise), build is not premium, no weather sealing, no buttons. And you will probably not fall over and fall in love looking at the photos and then want to use no other lens for a year. But for the weight class, that's more than good enough for me - since a pro, fast, premium lens of the same range would weigh 3 times as much and I would not bother carrying it on hikes. The images are worthy of being displayed alongside your images from the really good lenses and will not stand out as amateur quality.So what is there to complain about? Only the price. Though it is justified to pay more than the 35-100, 45-150, it is not so justified to pay more than a used eBay copy of the same condition, and I see it there for like 50$ less. The extra is just for using Amazon, but I couldn't be bothered to return and buy anew. ## Frequently Bought Together - Panasonic LUMIX G X Vario Power Zoom Lens, 45-175MM, F4.0-5.6 ASPH, MIRRORLESS Micro Four Thirds, Power Optical I.S, H-PS45175K (USA Black) - Logitech for Creators Mevo Core Wireless Live Streaming Camera, 4K Video Camera with Interchangeable Lens, Multicam Ready, Intuitive App Control - PANASONIC LUMIX G X Vario Power Zoom Lens, 14-42MM, F3.5-5.6 ASPH., MIRRORLESS Micro Four Thirds, Power O.I.S., H-PS14042K (USA Black) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/1387783-lumix-g-x-vario-power-zoom-lens-45-175mm-f4](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/1387783-lumix-g-x-vario-power-zoom-lens-45-175mm-f4) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-23*
