According to our camera lens expert
The Panasonic Lumix DG 100-400mm f/4-6.3 ASPH Power O.I.S is a telephoto lens for Panasonic or Olympus mirrorless cameras with a Micro Four Thirds mount. This lens is suitable for sports, nature, and animal photography. The optical image stabilization prevents blurry photos, so you can clearly see the emotions on the faces of the soccer players you photograph. Special lens elements prevent chromatic aberration. That way, the colors and contrasts in your photos always look natural.

This telephoto zoom is a great tool for bird and wildlife photographers. The image stabilization in the lens works excellently, so that in many cases you can also photograph without a tripod. Only when there is little light are there problems (especially at the longest focal lengths (300 to 400 mm); either you have to reach for the higher ISO values, which can give noise problems, or you have to work with fairly long exposures and hope that you get the best possible results. If you use the lens on a GX8 camera body you can take advantage of a combined stabilization Power OIS + IBIS An additional advantage for nature and wildlife photographers is the sealing of the lens against dust and splash water. That is really quite an improvement compared to the Lumix 100-300 mm zoom lens. Also worth mentioning is the exceptionally shortest distance for focusing: 1m30cm. At the 400mm position, this allows macro shots, as it were, of skittish butterflies and small animals without having to sneak up on them carefully so as not to chase them away.

After 10,000 photos taken across the African continent, I see no difference with my LUMIX 50-200mm and/or Olympus 40-150mm PRO over the same zoom area, but it is much longer in terms of focus length. Very nice lens.
