Late in 2017 there were reports of loss of X5 compatibility with the Panasonic Lumix G Vario 35-100mm f/4.0-5.6 after a DJI firmware upgrade. Is this still the case?
This lens was never officially compatible with any X5 generation camera. It will fit, but will require complex balancing on camera back and will not calibrate. Most likely manual focusing and zooming will be the only option.
Hi bnewman, no, Panasonic Lumix 35-100mm lens is not in the compatibility list, the compatibility cannot be ensured, it is recommended to use the lens on the list for better performance.
