Panasonic Lumix G H-H020AK 20mm

★★★★★ 4.6 (517)

Its f/1.7 constant aperture and sharp 20mm optics (40mm equivalent) deliver strong low-light performance in an ultra-compact 87g pancake build. The lens’s durable metal mount and discreet size make it a portable everyday prime that produces contrasty images with appealing bokeh. This lens is best for street and travel photographers who want a fast, lightweight Micro Four Thirds prime for portraits and general shooting.
