To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on 鶹. It also analyzes reviews to verify trustworthiness.
Very good zoom lens for the money and range. 14-40mm range fits my need and budget. Though their are way better lenses out there, most are way heavier or much more expensive. I bought it to get paired with the lumix s9, so weight was a consideration.
