The Panasonic bodies will function the best with a Panasonic lense. The 100-400 Panasonic lense will shoot on the Olympus, but I believe that the lense IS does not function.


No, you have to choose between the lens IS and Olympus' IBIS. Choose the first one. It works well. I use the Panasonic 100-400 lens with Olympus E-M1 II and got a nice sharp picture at 400mm with 1/80s shutter speed, handheld, using the lens IS:

Please forgive me if anyone thinks this is a hijack, but the image attached to this post has me smiling from ear-to-ear. Catching that bird eye is spot on! Without IS or a tripod (w/o IS), there's little chance to capture this image given all the excitement the situation creates...

Thanks, I was not aware of that. It is good to know that for future questions.
