Best telephoto lens for the panasonic lumix s5 iix?

For the S5 IIX, I'd start with the Sigma 300-600mm f/4 DG OS Sports. It's the fastest aperture on the list, which matters most for wildlife and sport, where you need shutter speed. It's also big and costly, as full-frame telephotos tend to be.

If you want one zoom that covers more range, the Sigma 60-600mm f/4.5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports goes from near-standard to very long. The Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports is a middle ground. The Panasonic Lumix S 100-500mm f/5-7.1 OIS is the one to look at if you want a Panasonic-branded option.

Read wildlife and sport before you buy, since it covers how much reach you actually need.
