very useful, thanks. are you considering doing any comparisons between other lumix lenses, including the ones branded leica? also, it would be most interesting to see what you made of the M43 metabones speedbooster with EF or other lenses.
i don't understand why people are obsessed by the fact that a lens is made or not of metal. plastic in some way is better than metal
The Panasonic 12-35 and 35-100 have been in my bag for years, and I've avoided the 14-140 for so long because I thought it was a cheap compromise. But the thought of that zoom range in one lens is very intriguing. Thanks, this is a great comparison.
Having the Olympus 14-150 f4-5.6 II in the mix would have been really interesting, expecially given the weather sealing component in that lens. Anyway, thanks for showing us the Tamron underdog, ignored almost everywhere!
U have no idea how helpful this video is !
Curious about your opinion with Olympus lens. There focus ring and zoom rings are sooo nice in IMO. Also they have fix F/S when you do there pro series.
I used the Panasonic 14-140 for two years with a Lumix G7. I ended up taking more stills. But the economy, versatility and lightweight nature of this equipment is pretty impressive in good light.
William Bibb and that thing is really cheap. Even if you want still image, you would spmetimes want it's 4k photo 30fps burst
True. It's really hard to beat MFT for outdoor shoots and hikes. It's just SO LIGHT.
Thank you for this video!
Exactly what I´m looking for!
I have the Panasonic 14-140mm but I don't use it for professional work. I shoot a lot of live theatre and it's a bit too dark. What about a comparison between this and the Olympus 12-100mm?
Awesome review! Thank you!
Nice Review....but from my experience, i am missing one point (may be its not a huge deal for filmers). What happens with the tamron when you shoot against bright sun or other brighter lightsources? The Panny 14-140II is known for its weak performance in that area. Horrible purble and greenish blobs that invade huge parts of the frame often makes a shot unusable. So, does tamron better here? That could be an advantage.
Good review. It looks like you used a long telephoto on this shoot, was that using a Gh5 with the 75mm Oly? need to know :-) This shot of you looks almost 3D !
Hello Lee,
Thanks for the video. I am a big fan of fstoppers. I have watched many video tutorials of yours and they are simply awesome. I am waiting for the new series of landscape photography tutorials with Elia. I have a quick question for you. Can you please suggest me a value for money wide angle lense for Nikon D7200?
Thanks in advance and all the very best.
Great review! Thumbs up and subscribed. I'll watch more of your content :)
I'm looking into getting this lens for documentary filmmaking. Yesterday I shot a short doc using a 14-42 panny kit lens and sometimes it wasn't enough. So thanks for this video because now I have a better idea that it might be worth it to get the 14-140.
Good video. It's interesting seeing mirrorless converts finally seeing the benefits of these great systems, especially things like image stabilisation, EVF and the indispensable flip touch screen. I hated the weight and outright clunky handling of my Nikons so I've never regretted switching years back. I've used the 14-140 for at least 5 years and it's hands down the best travel lens ever for stills and video versatility with the GH5. I use it regularly for pro work too when not using primes. It's a must have for any run and gun styles.
Sound stuff. .cheers 👍
Happy to see more m43 content from you fellas
great review, subscribed.
which one is better between these for travel and family photography?
G85 with 14-140mm and GX85 with 12-32mm+40-150mm.
thank you
Would stabilization works with an Olympus camera?
Thank you. Awesome video. Right to the point. All I needed to know 👍🏻
What camera did you use for the video?
thank you very much for this helpful video. It helped me to choose a lense - thanks a lot.
i'am using Lumix G85, so what is better for me to buy, the Tamron or Panasonic? considering my G85 already have in body image stabilization
Is the panasonic one weather sealed?
I use Filmora when editing, so I recognized your intro/outro music from the stock library! Thanks for making me nostalgic for one of my old projects that used the song lol.
Great vid! I was going to get the Tamron, but after seeing the zoom focus freakout, I think I'm going with Panasonic.
Which camera and lens u used for this video
Great Review - im planning on getting the G85 mainly for cinematics & B-Roll.. do you recommend i get the 12-60 or the 14-140 ? im kinda confused.
Depends on if you need the range or constant aperture more.
So what did you get? I think the 12-60 is sharper but having on lens do it all with be nice
@@amelmaho2311 i got the 14-140, however i do plan on getting a prime lens for it sometime in the near future. which lenses do you currently own ?
Good review with the focus on pricing being a factor into the decision. Now, will you still continue to shoot Nikon for stills or are you completely doing away with the Nikon system?
Sean Lucious we still have a d850 for stills
Thank you so much for this great review. I have a Lumix G7 and I'm going to get the Panasonic lens for it.
This was helpful. I watched a video somewhere with a Panasonic rep talking about the benefits of their DFD Autofocus with Panasonic lenses. They have all the geometric data from their lenses, so they can account for zoom when focusing which is why you see a drastic difference between the Panasonic and Tamron.
Don't forget those of us with Olympus OMD and in body 5 axis IS. I have the Tamron 14-150, covers a nice range in a single lens for us non professional photographers...
Why didn't you get the Oly 14-150? I got mine for a little over 300 bucks and it's weather sealed.
good info, thanks for sharing
What about focus breathing?
Nice review...the Panasonic lens is actually on sale on Amazon for about $150 right now...
very usefull review, but I'd like to have had the Olympus 14-150 Mark II included since it is weather sealed which the Panasonic and Tamron aren't.
Thanks for the Good Tip mate. I will now buy the "Olympus 14-150 Mark II" you recommend here. Cheers from Western Australia
The current Panasonic is weather sealed. It has been for about a year or so, but it's worth checking whether any specific example is old stock or not. This reply being written in April 2020.
I observed a noticeable improvement in the Lumix Dual IS comparison over the IBIS only of the Tamron.
Yeah I didn't get Lee's judgment
I have lumix g85 but there is one problem when i trun my 14mm zoom ring
Then camera out of focus again n again plz sir help me
Nice video - It would be cool to see some Olympus lenses as well.
very informative, thanks
I'm using the 14-140mm on the GH6. Dual stabalization works wonderfully. Using the latest revision of the 14-140mm.
Thank you, great video.
hey man that doesnt look right at all ARE YOU SURE YOU HAVE THE IBIS TURNED ON IN THE CAM SETTING
Cool review.. Buying one...
great Video as usual
Thank you. I picked up the Tamron used as a cheap do it all lens based on your review. It is being used with on a Panasonic GX80/5
How have you liked your Tamron 14-150mm? I have a Panasonic GX85 and was considering the Panasonic 14-140mm. Would love any input you have regarding use of the Tamron for photo and/or video work. Thanks!
Great comparison!
I have the Panasonic 14-140mm v.2 and love it.
Didn’t you make fun of m 4/3 a while back? Lol
Dude that's what I said lol this guy is all about views I guess I thought he would never make a m43 video
they switched to the GH5 for video- I think that's why more Micro 4/3 content. I actually prefer Micro 4/3 for stills and video.
I like m4/3 for pictures actually. Cannon can’t be beat with the dual pixel autofocus for video. But for photography I love the evf, of my g9 and the ease of getting the right exposure. If I need an extreme shallow depth of field I’ll use my canon. But it isn’t so often.
At max zoom how much light can you let in? I know some lens let you let more light in.
I think that's the second number in f3.5-5.8. So f3.5 at wide angle and f5.8 at max zoom.
The problem with the Panasonic lenses when shooting video is they are impossible to pull focus with. They are a focus by wire (electronic focus) which makes trying to keep a subject in focus manually as you either pull away or get closer to pretty much impossible. I've tried panny lenses in a pocket4k because I'd like an OIS lens. Totally let down when I realized this issue.
Is the Tamron lens still available for MFT?
Tamron lenses for ff dslr are great, for Sony and micro 3/4 cameras behind expectations...
Howdy Lee, I’ve owned the pano 14-140 for a couple or more years now and whack it on one of my m4/3 bodies as a general walk about go2lens most of the time, great lens.
When i got my gh4 the 14140 Panasonic came with it. I tried to get the Camera without the kitlense but was not able to get it for, you know, reasons. I thought i would sell this thing asap. But after using it, i fell in love and kept it. Such a versatile, even used it at some birdshows and achived Great results. Best zoom lense i've ever got. Including the sel 24105 on my a7iii. Just a Fun lense to übe.
Thank you for that Video! Very needfull
love these comparison videos. great for beginners like me. the Panasonic 45-150 is a great piece I've had for a while but the 14-140 would definitely be a better every day lens for me.
The 14-140mm Panasonic lense seems to suit most situations for me. Although there must be significant compromises in the design of such a wide range telephoto in practice it seems to serve me very well.
¿Cual es mejor?
The extending tube when you zoom in is always plastic. Have you ever seen it to be anything differnt?? How is that an argument in terms of build quality?
Tomek Bidzinski agreed
Tomek Bidzinski Sometimes lenses have internal zooming so it doesn’t stick out like that. Maybe that’s why it’s brought up? Not sure.
As far as i can tell, every lens of mine (except the 24 mm) is full metal. But need to say, every lens is roughly older than 35 years. Especially my old Tokinas are full metal. So i guess manufactures could do so again but … weight. :D
Greetings from Germany.
Old lenses yes. I agree. I have a couple myself. But this is about modern ones.
I would love to see a comparison between the olympus 14-150 and the panasonic 14-140mm, Somehow there are almost no well produced reviews of this lense on youtube. And it's a lense you can often get as a kit lense on omd cameras, with some stupid high discounts.
How are you getting on with the olympus 14 -150 ?
Hi, What shoukd i do or what setting would assure a functioning dual I.s.? I got a gx9 with a 14-140 but don’t get the image stabilizer to show dual is in the menus. Also, should the lens make any sound or is it super quiet, I don’t get anything when I flip the lens switch on, also nothing in the menus as if this is not a stabilized lens
man cool review Tamron for Lumix
Try the Olympus, but thanks for the video talking about this tamron and general m43. I will buy definitively the Olympus version.
Love the 14-140. It's my most used lens. Now even cheaper and weather sealed too.
Gracias por los subtítulos 👏
I bought the Tamron. Main reason for me was the stepper motor, but also Tamron's specialty is zoom lenses. I only disagreed with one thing in the video, the blame for the zoom-drift slowness of the focus. DFD requires hints to be placed into the firmware of the lens in order for the body to not fall back on plain CDAF, which Panasonic does not license so as to assert something of a monopoly over lens choice. On an Olympus Body with PDAF, the Tamron tracks the video zoom like the native lens on the Panasonic. Stills on either one are fast enough either way, so in the final sense, it depends on your use case. If think full transport video zooms, all the way from near to far, are silly anyway, partials quite interesting. So the slow video AF on the Panasonic body is not the fault of the Tamron lens. It is the fault of business practice at Panasonic. They want your money. With regard to picture quality, 4K video noes not require an especially sharp lens, because 4K only generates an 8 megapixel picture. What we hate to admit is the convenience of the all-in-one zoom for use on stills. When we go out, solely to shoot, we like to mount the sharpest or alternatively the fastest lens for the scenario. But when we travel, we have a choice, either to take the whole bag and take your time, often scarce-I carry 7 lenses, 3 of which are small primes-or cut to the chase and put up with the "travel length" zoom, small compromises forgiven. In the end, we agree. The results are not altogether terrible, but very good, not perfect.
No stabilisation on the G7 so that the Pana 14-140 without thinking. But nice review. Tamron make sence with the G80
Very nice. I have 14-140mm and most of the shots i do are with this lens. For quality and tripod shots I use 25mm prime 1.4.
When have you ever taken a "quality" shot?
Great review. Thanks for sharing. Just ordered panasonic one. For £230 on ebay 👍👍
David Perrin Hi what do you make of the lens since you got it?
Those lenses are awesome for outdoor video.
I'll buy the Panasonic If the O.I.S. on it is compatible with the bmpcc.
Why are these lenses so expensive? I’m not a mft user. (you could probably tell from my question). But that’s a bit too much for a variable aperture isn’t it?
Great review, especially about the zooming issue at the end, wow that is awful and really worth knowing. Not buying that tamron, that will ruin my work.
No one zooms that way...
One other aspect you didn't consider that the Panasonic does better than the Tamron and the Olympus is the focus distance. Panasonic is 30cm where as the other two is 50cm. Considering the 14-42mm Olympus and Panasonic are between 20-25cm focal distance, I would be willing to loss a little zoom with the Panasonic 14-140mm for a tighter focal length closer to the 14-42 kit lenes.
It's minimum focus distance is only 30cm for up to (I think) 22mm then it also has 50cm like the others
I'm a prime lenses guy, I already tried a lot of long and very long zoom factor lenses as travel or one in all lenses but none of them were good enough. The only one I like is the zuiko 12-100 f4 pro, but it's "only" f4 and it's quite expensive.
I have also the 14-150 from Oly and honestly it's a pity, slow, not so sharp, it's only pros are price and weight.
What was used to film this video? What camera and lens...i bet it was a FF....😪
Panasonic GH5....micro 4/3rds.
if u want zoom and lens stabilization for the same price as the panasonic, get the
PANASONIC LUMIX G II Vario Lens, 100-300MM
A 14-140mm lens for full frame would be awesome
the 24-105 exists . at 14mm for ff it will be too big and expensive
Don't forget the 24-240 from Sony.
Hmm you saying here that depth of field now is a lens thing not a camera? :D
It's the combination of the sensor and the lens. There is a lot of misleading info about it.
On paper panasonic is sealed + better minimum focus range
Isn't it?
i have the gh5 with the 14-140mm lens.... but the dual IS doesnt work at movie mode. all other modes dual IS works. you'll not get the in body stabilation what you want. for picture youll get the in dual IS. on the panasonic webpage its says. its compatible with the gh5 dual IS system but that aint the case. realy anoing.
have you updated the firmware for the lens? I have the G9 and I have dual IS after I updated the firmware on my 3 year old 14-140mm I got with the G7.
gh5 s dosn´t have a intern sensor stabilsator ;)
Fot tele zoom lensens use only the lens stabilisation for small lensen use dual and body stabilisation
an entire video about using a stills lens for video
That is wired cos I actually see quite a big difference when I zoom my Panasonic 14-140 to 140 and turn its OIS off with the button (in-build camera IBIS is still on), the shaking grows very significant. Not that obvious at shorter range. But you did a test at maximum range as well. And that is wired, that you didn't see a difference.
Racoon Jack- With a PannyCam, when you switch off OIS on the lens, it switches off internal as well. No way to select just one or the other.
It will be interesting to make a comparison with Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II + 12-100 f/4 PRO, to see how is the dual stabilization there.
Canadians, buy Panasonic lens from B & H. It's a lot cheaper there. Presently Jul 9, 2018
B & H U$497.99 C$651.37
Camera Store C$849.99
I have the same thing with my Canon M5. I use a 22mm. M pancake lens for snapping at parties etc. or use an adapted EF L 24-105 lens for more serious and video. Also have an 18- 55 M lens which is very useful Lee. If you have any sway with Canon, please ask them to make the remote trigger port and main take button change from still to video when you are taking movies. Bit of video fron the M5 included. th-cam.com/video/YveDNbH-UTU/w-d-xo.html
*That would be a 28-300mm on a non full frame camera
No stabilization, no party
TRY OLYMPUS 12-100 i LOVE THIS LENS MORE SHARP AND ALSO IMAGE STABILIZATION AMAZING
and much much heavier... and no dual IS
The Panasonic 14-140 3.5-5.6 is only 2400RMB(about $375) in China, hope this info could help you gays to save money😂
Buying fake things from china is always a big risk
@@SlothHunter2 You should check where the genuine items are made as well
in short Lumix is best. and is now days comes as a kit lens with G85/G80 etc.
The internet "All Kit Lenses are Garbage... ohhh... so you can use it to make money? Cool." Take portraits with speedlights now.
G7 with Panasonic all day. Not even a ?
thanks for tips but less video more photo talk next time
Sounds like u shoot videos
the Panasonic is USELESS BECAUSE OF JITTERING on bodies with no ibis. just sayin. Very well known issue of this lens.
