Panasonic 100-400mm f4.0-6.3 II Preview: Impressive reach in a beautiful body

I have a love-hate relationship with 800mm lenses — I love the photos but hate hauling them around. But the Panasonic Leica DG Vario-Elmar 100-400mm f4. 0-6. 3 II ASPH OIS has a build that’s shorter than its name.

The lens, which we’ll call the Panasonic 100-400mm f4-6. 3 II for short, is closer to the size of a full-frame 70-200mm f2. 8 than a lens with an 800mm reach. That’s a compact size that’s going to mean still getting the shot after a three-mile hike and still getting the shot without a tripod or monopod to hold up the weight. Not to mention the $1,200 price tag that’s more affordable than a full frame 800mm. .
