Wide-to-Normal Zoom. With a focal length equivalent to 24-64mm after sensor crop, the Panasonic 12-32mm is a great general-purpose kit lens for use with Micro 4/3 cameras and camcorders. Its f/3.5-5.6 variable aperture isn’t great for shooting in low light, so this isn’t the lens to use to capture that candlelight portrait.

MEGA Optical Image Stabilization. This in-lens stabilizer helps combat camera shake during still and video shooting.

Retractable Design. This ultra-compact lens is just 0.94" in length when the camera is powered off and lens retracted. At just 0.15 lbs, it’s a great lens to have with you at all times.

Fast Autofocus. The inner focus drive system and stepping motor provides fast, silent performance when shooting still images and video.

Optics. Three aspherical elements and one extra-low dispersion elements are used to help minimize aberrations while producing sharp, high-contrast images.
