What are the alternatives to the panasonic lumix g x 35 100mm f 2 8 ii?

The only other lens I have on the site for this range is the Panasonic Lumix G 35-100mm f/4-5.6. It covers the same 35-100mm span on Micro Four Thirds, but its maximum aperture is f/4 to f/5.6 rather than a constant f/2.8. That means less light at the long end and less background blur, so it's the one to consider if you shoot mostly in bright conditions or want a smaller, simpler zoom.

If you want more background separation or better low-light performance, the f/2.8 version is the one I'd pick. On Micro Four Thirds it frames like a 70-200mm on full frame, and you can check how that conversion works on the sensor sizes page.
