Panasonic LUMIX S 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 Macro O.I.S. Objetiva S-R70300E

Telephoto zoom lenses often force a choice between reach and close-up ability, but the Panasonic LUMIX S 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 Macro O.I.S. closes that gap. It covers a versatile 70-300mm range and focuses down to 0.54m for 0.5x macro magnification, so one lens handles sports, wildlife, portraits, and detailed close-ups.
