86.5 Score
12-100mm f/4.0 Micro Four Thirds IS Weather Sealed
Why we recommend this

Combining a 24-200mm equivalent focal range with a constant f/4.0 aperture, this lens eliminates the need to swap optics in the field. Its in-lens stabilization syncs with compatible bodies for up to 5-axis compensation, while the weather-sealed, all-metal build withstands harsh conditions. This is the ideal single-lens solution for travel and nature photographers who demand pro-grade sharpness and refuse to compromise on durability.
