Panasonic LUMIX S PRO 70-200mm f/2.8 O.I.S. (S-E70200)
Panasonic's LUMIX S PRO 70-200mm f/2.8 O.I.S. is the pro L-mount fast telephoto for events, portraits, and sports, with stabilization rated up to 7 stops via Dual I.S. 2 on compatible bodies and an 82mm front. Its main caveat is its weight: at 1,570 g it's a commitment. It's the right call for working telephoto shooters, but travel-light kits and budget buyers are better served by the f/4 PRO.
